Aging out: Place and sexuality
This paper explores LGBT retirees as agents of change who are renegotiating the terms of healthy aging in place and expanding our understanding of lifestyle and retirement migration. For the first time in history, a generation of self-identified lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, and transgender individuals have entered retirement. However, their subjective experiences have largely been glossed over in popular discourses of successful aging and migrat…
Retirement Migration and Precarity in Later Life
DIY Aging: Retirement Migration as a New Age-Script
The post-retirement aging process involves making many decisions. Strained social welfare programs for the elderly have met with a generation well-versed in 'do-it-yourself' projects resulting in a novel script for DIY retirement, aging and dying. For decades baby boomers in North America and Europe have valorized personal freedom and independence and are now carrying these values into retirement. Some are seeking tenable, independent retirement …

Housing as a determinant of health for older LGBT Canadians: Focus group findings from a national housing study
This article shares key focus group findings from a national study focused on the housing needs of older (55+) lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) Canadians. LGBT populations have and continue to face systemic discrimination and barriers to appropriate housing across the life course, and yet little attention has been given to solutions. Many older LGBT adults live alone, face poverty, and have limited familial supports which impact on …
Mobile Desires: The Politics and Erotics of Mobility Justice, edited by Liz Montegary and Melissa Autumn White
In Mobile Desires the question of mobility justice is bracketed within desires: the multiple complex longings for freedom of physical and emotional movement, freedom of personal and situational sta
Maybe you will remember’: Interpretation and life course reflexivity
This paper examines the relationship of the fieldworker, self‐proclaimed venerate ‘insider/outsider’, to their shifting role as researcher and traveller on the life course. Ethnographic fieldwork is a transitory research method, reliant on a gaze shifting from the breadth of the field site to the depth of individual human experience. The researcher is the conduit and the instrument of data collection but has not been adequately understood as a tr…
Introduction to the group submission: Silver Linings: Older People Defying Expectations
This group of articles looks at these issues in a variety of contemporary contexts. Robbins-Ruszkowski examines Universities of the Third Age as sites which offer alternatives to dominant discourses about aging in contemporary Poland. The Argentine elders DuBois describes engage in political activism in attempts to alter policies with respect to retirees, but also as an end in itself. Gambold's study of older women who retire abroad to Mexico and…
Retirement Abroad as Women's Aging Strategy
Understanding the culture and lifestyle choices of retirees has never been so crucial. The aging baby boom population bubble means that by 2030 eighteen percent of the U.S. will be 65 or over. The lifestyle decisions of these individuals will have far-reaching implications culturally, politically and economically. Since more women are living their post-retirement lives alone and in economically challenging situations, this paper examines the mobi…
Retirement Migrants: The Global Flow of the Non-Working
L'antagonisme de l'exploitation collective postsocialiste1
Bien qu'en Russie l'agriculture ait été privatisée il y a plus de dix ans, elle reste à implanter sur le plan individuel. Les obstacles économiques que doivent affronter les agriculteurs laissés pour compte sont, dans la plupart des cas, presque insurmontables. De plus, ceux qui tentent l'expérience de l'agriculture en entreprise privée et qui quittent l'exploitation collective doivent également être prêts à quitter symboliquement la communauté. …
