Description
With the ever-increasing personal and professional demands of living in the twenty-first century, trying to strike a balance between these two overlapping but never separate areas of life pose many challenges. Connecting the Dots: Work. Life. Balance. Ageing examines the many complexities the working-age population faces when trying to find this balance, the effects these challenges pose to health, well-being, and family structures, and offers insights into the issues with which the ageing population grapple.
Born out of a three-year research project conducted in the Caribbean, through a mixed-methods approach, including talking circles, time-use journals, and in-depth interviews, Connecting the Dots delves into issues that examine the breadth of adulthood. Issues such as stress, care giving, gendered division of familial labour, the labour market, growing older, illness, and death.
Editors Patricia Mohammed and Cheryl-Ann Boodram oversee this inter-disciplinary and insightful body of work, spanning the fields of gender studies, anthropology, social work, and gerontology, which offers a roadmap for future researchers follow and a guideline for policymakers to ensure a healthier, balanced, and more productive population.
