 DESCRIPTION
spacer
The elderly persons represent a storehouse of knowledge and experience and a reservoir of wisdom but are a highly vulnerable group in society. Their vulnerability increases with age. The vulnerability lies mainly in lack of employment, financial insecurity, ill health and neglect by society. Any system of social security of the elderly should address all these vulnerabilities. It has, therefore, to be a multi dimensional programme providing income security, health security and emotional support. While the family can provide the basic security, the major responsibility for providing social security to the elderly lies on the community and the state in the age of industrialization. The book is based on a study of all these aspects. It analyses mainly the retirement provisions in form of pensions or provident fund for the elderly in the organized as well as unorganized sectors in India and other major Asian countries. Health and psychological security for wrinkling faces of passing years are the other issues dealt with. The book may be of interest to all concerned with the ever increasing problems of ageing.
