Retirement Migration

The book is the first ethnographic study of international retirement migration and offers a sometimes surprising picture of the potentials seductions and limitations of the lifestyles. People envision retirement as freedom from responsibilities through shedding the restrictive shackles of their former selves in a time of life dedicated to fun friendship healthy activity and individual fulfillment. However as Oliver documents a number of contradictions underpin the pursuits of such a lifestyle. She shows how retirees must balance time-use to achieve both freedoms and busy social schedules -- their activities their relationships and their cultural identities â to balance both the security of nationality with the discovery of the new. Retirement Migration gives a critical insight into the new ways aging identities are experienced by a growing number of older people in Western societies today. . Language: English
