Story
Erst im Alter sind wir richtig jung! Wenn Jugend bedeutet, unbeschwert auf alles zuzugehen, mutig und neugierig zu sein, dann stellt sich die Frage: Wann haben wir das wirklich gelebt? Mit 20, als wir hin- und hergerissen waren, wo die Reise hingeht? Mit 30, als Stress und schlaflose Nächte uns erschöpften? Mit 40 oder 50, als Gewohnheiten vermeintliche Sicherheit vermittelten? Tatsache ist: Die Zeit von 60 bis 90 Jahren ist genauso lang wie die von 30 bis 60 - JETZT ist die Zeit, in der wir jung sein können.

Story
Some of the most profound growth of our lives can happen in the home stretch, the years after age 60 or so. It's a time when we can finally crystallize the meaning of what we've been and done so far and fully expand into the self we've always intended to be, guided by the voice of the soul. But, says psychologist Charles Garfield, that can only happen if we first loosen the grip of the life we've led so far, the one that's been focused outwardly - on activity, achievement, and the idea of success - and let our souls lead the way.

Story
Die Sorge um die alt werdenden Eltern ist eine der großen Herausforderungen unserer Zeit. Familienstrukturen haben sich aufgelöst, das Leben in der globalisierten Welt fordert maximale Flexibilität und Mobilität. Die wenigsten von uns sind darauf vorbereitet, plötzlich für gebrechliche Menschen da sein zu müssen. Pflege reißt Lücken in unsere Lebensläufe und konfrontiert uns mit uns selbst. Dies umso mehr, wenn die Eltern den Zweiten Weltkrieg erlebt haben und in ihrer Seele unaufgearbeitete Traumata verbergen, die oft über Generationen nachwirken.

Story
Eigentlich hatte Didier Eribon sich vorgenommen, ab jetzt regelmäßig nach Fismes zu fahren. Doch seine Mutter stirbt wenige Wochen nach ihrem Umzug in ein Pflegeheim in dem kleinen Ort in der Champagne. Wie in Rückkehr nach Reims wird dieser Einschnitt zum Ausgangspunkt für eine Reise in die Vergangenheit. Eribon rekonstruiert die von Knappheit und Zwängen bestimmte Biografie einer Frau, die an einen brutalen Ehemann gekettet blieb und sich sogar in ihren Träumen bescheiden musste. "Meine Mutter", hält er fest, "war ihr ganzes Leben lang unglücklich."

Story
In un mondo dove l'uomo crede di avere in mano il suo destino, corriamo un grande rischio: non ammettere che il filo rosso dell'esistenza si possa indebolire e spezzare e non comprendere gli aspetti positivi di ogni trasformazione a partire dalla bellezza di invecchiare. Vittorino Andreoli ci racconta la vecchiaia come capitolo originale dell'esistenza e non come un'età "malata". Chi ha "danzato a lungo col tempo" ha maggiore capacità di sperimentare la gioia e considerare il piacere.

Die Periode ist politisch – ihr Ausbleiben aber auch. Als Miriam Stein von Hitzewallungen, Schlafstörungen und weiteren unangenehmen Vorboten der Menopause überrascht wird, erkundet sie die ihr von der patriarchalen Gesellschaft zugedachte Stellung neu. Leicht gereizt stellt sie fest: Die sogenannten Wechseljahre sind das letzte Tabu der Frauengesundheit. Bis zum heutigen Tag bestimmen Mythen und Fehlinformationen den Diskurs: Das Klimakterium erscheint als peinliche Hormonmangel-Krankheit. Der unfruchtbar – und somit unattraktiv – gewordenen Frau wird geraten, sich neu zu erfinden.

Overtime offers a current, revelatory corrective to our understanding of the future of the American workforce and aging. Experts across economics, sociology, psychology, political science, and epidemiology examine how increasing economic and social inequalities, coupled with changes across generations or birth cohorts, call for a rethinking of the working-longer policy framework. Together, they argue that policies affecting work must be considered alongside policies affecting retirement and provide a path forward to achieve better retirement security for all Americans.
