Resumo
This paper aims to show the new ways to live the ageing population process,
offered by various transformations in which the society is going through over the time.
We believe that such changes are governed by modernity and globalization, where
society sudden has to modify their ways to act, think and live the everyday-life. These
changes promote new forms of sociability and conflicts, both among the elderly as in
other age groups of the population. This is evident from some factors such as the search
for institutions to promote the meeting of the elderly, the creation of the Statute of the
Elderly, new types of family, the monoparents ones, the sole traders, the female
leadership, the return to the labour market, the permanence in the same, the informal
employment among this public, caused by the fact that many of them do not follow the
changes that the labour market and its rules require: the preparation school, expertise,
training, foreign language. After all, there's no way to compete on an equal equation
with people of other age groups, beyond the physical limitations that the aged body has,
selecting only a few posts of job for the elderly. We showed with this range of
information, that the age’s transformations point the necessity of revision of the
priorities on the public agenda and the social politics to be developed and, still, in the
academic discussions that allude to this subject for reflection of tremendous amounts of
changes. We also showed along this study how sociological production treats the issue
of elderly in actuality, making correlations with relevant themes of social sciences, such
as issues of gender, family, generational, urban sociology, of modernity, educational and
economic discrepancies. Finally, we also showed how we can not make equal such
heterogeneous issues, such as population ageing process and all the changes in
contemporary society.
