Healthy Aging, Mental Health, and Sexuality
Sexuality is the manner in which we undergo and exhibit sexuality. It includes emotions, wants, behaviors, and identities, as well as a variety of forms of physical contact or stimulation. Intimacy is a sense of togetherness and connection in a relationship, which may or may not include physical contact. Aging creates possibilities for older individuals to reinterpret what sexuality and intimacy entail for them as a result of life changes. Certain older individuals want both a sexual and an intimate partnership, while others are fine with either, and some may opt to reject both sorts of partnership. Normal aging also causes physiological changes that might interfere with the capacity for and...

Living in the Margins in Mainland China, Hong Kong and India
With a range of case studies from Asia, this book sheds light on empirical realizations of marginality in a globalized context using first-hand original research. In the late 2000s, the financial crisis witnessed the fragility of high levels of market integration and the vulnerability of globalisation. Since then, the world seems to have entered an epoch of anxiety featuring populism with varying degrees of protectionism and nationalism. What is the nature of this populist mood as a backlash against globalisation? How do people feel about it and act upon it? Why should specific intellectual attention be paid to the increasingly marginalised by the recent macroscopic structural changes? These are the questions addressed by the contributors of this book, illustrated with specific cases from mainland China, Hong Kong and India, all of which have undergone substantial populist or nationalist movements since 2010. A valuable resource for sociologists looking to understand the impacts of globalization, especially those with a particular interest in Asia.
