SOCIAL VULNERABILITIES AND AGEING
Mots-clés :
la vulnérabilité sociale, l'étiquetage, les personnes âgées, les réseaux sociaux, les stéréotypes, la migrationRésumé
Les vulnérabilités sociales sont souvent liées au processus du vieillissement des personnes ou des cohortes d'un certain âge. La dimension sociale de la vulnérabilité reflète les facteurs et le mécanismes de vulnérabilités exogènes ou extrinsèques. Parmi ceux-ci, les facteurs les plus cités ayant le potentiel d'influencer la vie de personnes âgées sont: le statut socioéconomique (SSE), la deprivation, le soutien social, l'isolement ou l'exclusion sociale, les réseaux sociaux, l'engagement social, la maîtrise et le sens de contrôle sur les circonstances de la vie, capital social, et la cohésion sociale. L’article soulève ces questions portant sur le danger des stéréotypes concernant vieillissement. Un stéréotype est celui sur l'homogénéité du processus de vieillissement et de l'association d'un certain âge à la fragilité et aux risques.Les caractéristiques de la vulnérabilité sociale sont mis en évidence dans de contextes spécifiques, y compris celui de la migration. Nous terminons sur le vieillissement comme processus individuel, soutenu par différents modes de vie, divers problèmes personnels et sociaux des personnes âgées, de leurs attentes et les solutions proposées.Références
