“…Longer lives mean longer relationships with children as well as with a spouse, and they give new meaning to these family ties as they stretch and are altered over time. Critical gerontology promotes inclusive views of family ties that, for example, go beyond the traditional heteronormative focus on older heterosexual couples in long‐term relationships to consider same‐gender relationships and couples who do and do not live together later in life (Piel & Robra, ). Intimate ties can thus include a range of unions marked by mutual commitment, deep emotions, caring, compassion, physical intimacy, and interdependence (Connidis, ).…”

“…Studies of the different political and policy regimes of the former East Germany and West Germany (Piel & Robra, ) show the impact of macro‐ and meso‐level conditions on the negotiation of close relationships among today's middle‐aged and older women, women who were coming of age, worked and had families in each of the two locations. The socialist policy equation of men and women as workers in East Germany did not erase gender relations—a gendered division of household labor persisted—but it did make women more economically independent by supporting childcare and divorcées, helping also to decrease the stigma of divorce.…”

“…Если рассматривать книгу «Extra Time» с позиций активного долголетия, то эта работа может восприниматься как неплохое практическое пособие по исследованию возраста, изучению того, как происходит старение и насколько важна для пожилых людей активность. Но с учетом того, что с развитием критической геронтологии возникают новые подходы и концепции, в рамках которых критикуется активное старение, работу Камиллы Кавендиш невозможно назвать хорошей проработкой и полноценным исследованием возраста, в сравнении с исследованиями других авторов и критических геронтологов и социологов, где возраст рассматривается с критических позиций и анализируются подходы к изучению пожилых людей [Polivka, 2011;Holstein, Minkler, 2007;Piel, Robra, 2018]. Это в большей степени исследование, преследующее практические цели, хотя в книге достаточно хорошо рассмотрены и проработаны демографические аспекты и особенности старения.…”
