Throughout life, our everyday interactions with
material, social, and psychological environments
influence our self identity: and ‘who we think we are’
influences how we behave in particular places. In later
life, people bring to this relationship a lifetime’s
experience that makes certain associations more or less
important. This book explores the relationship between
environment and identity for older people. In this
detailed ethnographic study, older people talk in depth
about their situations and experiences of space and
place. The book examines the experience of men and women
of different ages and cultures living in a range of
different kinds of places, including ‘ordinary’ and
‘special’ housing - from a high-rise flat to a
residential care home - in semi-rural, urban and
metropolitan locations within the Midlands and
south-east England. This research enables us to
appreciate how older people manage their needs within
the context of their whole lives. Many are able to
achieve a ‘life of quality’ as they constantly engage
and re-engage with their environment. The discussion of
how environmental complexity influences people in
developing and maintaining their own identity is
essential for those involved in planning, designing,
caring and supporting people as they
age. Environment and Identity in Later Life is
key reading for students, practitioners and policy
makers interested in quality of life for older
people.
