Overview
Findsen (adult and continuing education, University of Glasgow, UK) explores the issue of social context in adult learning for older adults. Combining international perspectives drawn from adult education, sociology, social gerontology, and critical theory, he investigates the social and material circumstances of older adults' lives, arguing that educators and practitioners can better understand older adults' learning by more fully addressing the social construction of aging, older adults' interactions with social institutions, and the social issues they face.
