S OCIOLOGY OF A GING Over thirty years ago Simone de Beauvoir observed in The Coming of Age how "Not only are there many more aged people than there were, but they no longer spontaneously integrate with the community: society is compelled to decide upon their status, and the decision can only be taken at government level. Old age has become the object of a policy" (1972:222) PARALLELS BETWEEN ELDERLY AND MINORITY STATUSES When you think about it, there are a number of parallels between the social statuses of the old and African Americans in American society, between ageism and racism: Historically, the social opportunities of both have largely been granted rather than earned Both groups have been and continue to be stigmatized for unchangeable attributes, perceived as having lesser ability than those in the mainstream Both have a history of being discriminated against in workplace, where they serve as a balance between the supply and demand for labor So marginal had been their citizenship claims that Congress had to pass legislation recognizing rights: the Civil Rights and Older Americans Acts Residential segregation Viewed as a political minority AARP vs. NAACP: age-consciousness and race-consciousness: black panthers/gray panthers

In almost all countries, life expectancies are increasing rapidly, as is the proportion of the population that is elderly. In this course we examine the uniquely social aspects of old age and aging. We investigate how aging over the adult life course is shaped by our relationships in families, communities, cultural groups, and birth-cohorts, in conjunction with our individual characteristics. We also examine how the aging process is related to social institutions such as the family, the economy, the health care system, and the political system. The course has several overarching themes. One theme centers on basic research and theory with special attention to theoretical and empirical strategies for assessing and explaining social processes in the later years and over the life-course. A second theme focuses on diversity of the aging experience as structured by gender, race, ethnicity, social class and age cohort. A third theme concerns the meanings of old age and how these meanings are socially constructed based on our mutually agreed upon expectations of people in the later stages of life. A fourth theme revolves around issues of social, cultural, and historical changes that have altered the nature of personal, family, and cohort relationships with the aged, and created challenges for public aging policy.
