  Ageing: Between Science and Politics

  An international and pluridisciplinary conference of FRAMAG

  Since the mid-twentieth century, the ageing population has gradually become a major challenge in the industrialised countries for both politics and research. For long, interest in these topics has been sustained by the evolution of the age pyramid, ‘alarmist demography’ (Katz, 1992) along with the fear of a ‘decline’ in population. We invite scholars from the humanities, social sciences, and law to develop local as well as international and comparative approaches to issues related to ageing.
