CFP - THEORIZING AGE: CHALLENGING THE DISCIPLINES (Maastricht University, The Netherlands, 6-9th October, 2011)

posted Nov 22, 2010 7:55 PM by Aging Old Age Memory Aesthetics Conference 2011

This conference aims to discuss the challenges that inter- and multidisciplinary research on aging and later life faces. Not only do disciplines such as gerontology, sociology, history, philosophy, and the arts vary in the way they question age-related matters and implement various methodologies to provide answers to these questions. They also use different sets of concepts and terminologies, or use the same concepts but define them differently. Therefore, discipline-challenging dialogues will be generated at this conference along three paradigm shifts in the cross-disciplinary study of aging. Proposals can be sent to elena.fronk@maastrichtuniversity.nl until 15th March, 2011; please see attachment for full CFP.
