Gewalt im Alter: ein schweigsam gemachtes Phänomen?
Gewalt im höheren Lebensalter ist ein vielschichtiges, zugleich aber auch ein schweigsames Phänomen. Denn in der polizeilichen Kriminalstatistik sinkt das Risiko von Menschen im höheren Lebensalter, von Gewalt betroffen zu sein, zugleich heißt dies aber nicht, dass sie keine Gewalt erfahren. In Forschungen zu Gewalt im Alter überwiegen zudem Studien, die Gewalt in der Pflegebeziehung zwischen älteren Menschen und Pflegekräften erforschen, Studien…
Old’ Materialisms vs. ‘New’ Materialisms in Ageing Research
The importance of materiality is increasingly being discussed in ageing research, particularly in approaches of cultural, environmental, and material gerontology. This growing interest in materiality has led to a critical examination of the relationship between approaches that are inspired by what are referred to as ‘old materialisms’—that is, historical–materialist and Marxist approaches—on the one hand and ‘new materialisms’—that is, newer femi…
Lifetime Abuse and the Barriers to Women Aged 50 and Over Using Domestic Violence Services in Germany
Women often suffer abuse for many years before they turn to social services for victims and survivors of domestic violence (DV). This article examines the barriers that prevent women aged 50 and over from using these services. Adopting an intersectional approach, the article presents findings from a qualitative research project conducted in Germany. The findings suggest that services designed for DV victims and survivors in mind have not succeede…
Material gerontology – Central thematic intersections and blurring boundaries
Gewalt gegen Frauen
In dem Beitrag wird der Frage nachgegangen, warum gewaltbetroffene Frauen ab 50 Jahren, Frauen aus mittleren und höheren Bildungs- und Einkommensschichten und Frauen mit Behinderungen Angebote der Sozialen Arbeit selten nutzen, obwohl diese Angebote bei der Be- und Verarbeitung von Gewalterleben hilfreich sind. Zur Beantwortung dieser Frage werden mittels einer intersektionalen Mehrebenenanalyse Barrieren in der Inanspruchnahme dieser Angebote he…
Distributed age(ing)
In this paper, I develop features of a material gerontology which are summarised in the concept of "distributed age(ing);" that is, age(ing) that is distributed across and co-constituted through meanings, roles, and identities, as well as human and non-human forms of materiality, their productive dimensions and their relations to each other. The starting point is the critique of the human-centredness of gerontological approaches and, thus, the la…
Silhouettes analysis
In recent decades, postmodern, poststructuralist, and social constructivist theories, and the methodologies and methods they have informed, have been criticized for focusing primarily on human actors, discourses, and actions. Simultaneously, so-called posthuman theories have been developed that decentralize the human, reject an unquestioned use of the dualism of human/nonhuman, and emphasize the importance of the material world in the production …
Un/Doing Clientification
Ohne Klient*innen wäre Soziale Arbeit nicht möglich. Die Bezeichnung „Klient*in“ wirft jedoch die Frage auf, wer oder was genau damit gemeint ist und in welchem Verhältnis Soziale Arbeit zu Klient*innen steht. Dies ist im Handlungsfeld der stationären Sozialen Altenarbeit besonders relevant, in dem ältere Menschen in erster Linie als Bewohner*innen leben und lediglich kontextspezifisch zu Klient*innen werden. Diese fehlende Eindeutigkeit in der Z…
Un/Doing Age
In der aktuellen Soziologie werden Diskussionen über die Herstellung von sozialen Differenzkategorien, deren Wechselwirkungen und damit einhergehenden Produktionen sozialer Ungleichheitsverhältnisse insbesondere über intersektionale Ansätze geführt. Kritik an intersektionalen Ansätzen richtet sich auf ihre Fokussierung auf eine begrenzte Anzahl bereits gut erforschter Differenzkategorien und auf Konstruktionsprozesse ( doings ), wobei tendenziell…
Where and How Do Aging Processes Take Place in Everyday Life? Answers From a New Materialist Perspective
In the last decade, the focus of studies on age and aging has fundamentally changed from biological to symbolic, discursive, and cultural phenomena. Currently, the most studied topic in material gerontology is the materiality of age and aging in the context of everyday life. Scholars in this area have thus been making an important contribution to a material understanding of aging processes. As we understand them, however, both social constructivi…
Rethinking Socialization Research through the Lens of New Materialism
In recent decades, socialization research appears to have suffered the loss of its former capacity to explain the processes of becoming a socialized subject in a social environment. In this article I review socialization theories taking into account assumptions regarding human subjects and their social environments. I confront them with the idea of rethinking dualisms, ontologies and agencies addressed by the field of new materialism. I propose a…
Embodying of the self during interviews
This article investigates from an agential realist perspective the way the embodying of the self is constituted during interviews. Since the aim is to analyze how, in Karen Barad's words, 'matter comes to matter,' the approach presented here takes into account not only how discursive but also how material practices produce 'embodying processes' that differ according to situational references. The approach considers the influence of the agency of …
