“…Definitional issues have continued to cause difficulties in these studies, with narrow views of "risk" predominating (Daniel, 2010). Risk has several layers of meaning and nuanced aspects that need to be taken into account (Clarke, 2010;Kemshall, 2014). It may be understood as a constructed and contested concept with diverse aspects, including a dual nature embracing both negative and positive features for groups deemed to be "vulnerable" in some way, including children (Titterton and Hunter, 2011).…”

“…There is a tendency to focus on risk factors and their identification, rather than addressing the interconnections of risk and resilience processes and mechanisms (Daniel, 2010;Rutter, 2012;Titterton et al, 2002). The "contested territories" (Clarke, 2010) around risk and everyday life form an intriguing area for research and for practice in child care and protection. This is important in view of the emergence of "new social risks" (Taylor-Gooby, 2011), and new types of harmful risks, such as emotional abuse, online exploitation and radicalisation, alongside novel forms of austerity and exclusion.…”

“…The narratives of assumed “tragic” events such as extreme age, diagnosis with a chronic illness or disability are evident in the many studies that have shown how individuals themselves can integrate such events into their personal life story and are not necessarily overwhelmed by their situations (Clarke, 2010). We can see ideas of hope penetrating through the assumptions of life-as-tragic, e.g.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the experience of older people and their sense of developing wellbeing, including consideration of the strategies they employ to respond to perceived risk. Design/methodology/approach An Appreciative Inquiry study was used, which collected data with 58 participants in focus group and individual interviews. Interviews focussed on ways in which older people in South Africa, Australia, Germany and the UK understand and seek to maintain wellbeing. Findings The changing time horizons of older people lead to perceptions of risk and concerns that embrace societal as well as individual concerns. Often, this leads to a sense of societal responsibility and desire for social change, which is frustrated by a perceived exclusion from participation in society. Social implications In mental health practice and education, it is imperative to embrace the shift from ageist concerns (with later life viewed as risky and tragic in itself) towards a greater sensitivity for older people’s resilience, the strategies they deploy to maintain this, and their desire for more control and respect for their potential to contribute to society. Originality/value Variation in time horizons leads to changes in temporal accounting, which may be under-utilised by society. Consequently, societies may not recognise and support the resilience of older people to the detriment of older people as individuals and to the wider society.
