Journal of Community and Applied Social Psychology: Special issue call for papers

The Journal of Community and Applied Social Psychology is proposing a special
issue concerned with ageing and community. The rapidly rising proportion of
older adults in countries around the world has become one of the key societal
issues of the early 21st century. While discussions on that issue have often
focused on issues of dependency and economic burden that accompany this
new demographic reality, not enough has been said about the possibilities
which ageing brings for local communities around the world.
