| Sumario: | Thinking about care and aging processes tends to refer us to a social representation of both care and aging loaded with "Ageism", privatistic, familiar and even subordinate and unequal relationships between who exercises the role of caregiver and another who is cared for.
Aging is not only a chronological question, it is also growing, being in relationship with others, building a vital project, recognizing that not everyone ages in the same way, there are different ways of aging and of being in the world, very unequal indeed.
If we recognize that the aging process should not be approached by stages or by age groups to which care is provided, the conception of care as a policy displaces the idea of “care policies”, which increasingly resonates in the state public sphere.
These reflections intend to put into discussion these representations, which are reproduced in spaces of social intervention, both of state organisms through their public policies, and of societal and private organizations, being the context of crisis, such as a pandemic in 2020, the space and the moment to show a way of seeing, conceiving and being in the world that you can take care of or, on the contrary, you can neglect. |
