| Annotation | This book begins with a detailed analysis of economic welfare for older people in all regions of the developing world. The relationship between the public and private sector in social security systems, and the potential role of new social movements and non-governmental organisations are identified as key issues. These themes are applied to case studies of shanty towns in Buenos Aires, and to ageing and poverty in Argentina generally. |
