Age Discrimination and Diversity (eBook, ePUB)

Multiple Discrimination from an Age Perspective
Redaktion: Sargeant, Malcolm

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This volume of essays is concerned with the discrimination against older people that results from a failure to recognise their diversity. By considering the unique combinations of discrimination that arise from the interrelationship of age and gender, pensions, ethnicity, sexual orientation, socio-economic class and disability, the contributors demonstrate that the discrimination suffered is multiple in nature. It is the combination of these characteristics that leads to the need for more complex ways of tackling age discrimination.
