SUMMARY:Ageing Out of Place: Comparative Perspectives from Southeast Asia
LOCATION:Room 1.406
DESCRIPTION:Ageing in place as a conceptual framework has long dominated po
 licy and gerontological perspectives of what constitutes a ‘good life’ in o
 lder-age. This concept involves the idea of staying in the same or preferre
 d ‘place’ – narrowly defined as static, rather than fluid and dynamic – ove
 r a sustained period of time. Such understanding often assumes that discont
 inuity in place corresponds to problematic ageing processes. However, as gl
 obal migration continues to grow and for ever-diversifying reasons, people 
 are more likely ageing across places, in places other than those from which
  they originate and engaging in diverse practices of place-making. Similarl
 y, many older people who remain ‘in place’ are shaping and being influenced
  by family members’ migration projects. There is therefore acute need to ex
 plore the multiple and shifting experiences of ageing that go beyond a sing
 ular understanding of place.\n\nIn this panel, we invite contributions to r
 eflect on the linkages of ageing, place and migration. The concept of agein
 g out of place (Lewis 2009) will be critically examined in light of ongoing
  migration and displacement in Southeast Asia, together with the increasing
  normalcy of being in and belonging to multiple places at the same time. A 
 comparative focus on Southeast Asia provides a unique opportunity to consid
 er sociocultural and political specificities within the region, such as dif
 ferent regimes of ageing care and of migration; as well as connections betw
 een places in light of greater regional integration and mobility, while als
 o critically engaging with dominant assumptions embedded in Euro-American ‘
 models’ of ageing. Papers may focus on different kinds of mobilities in and
  across the region including: temporary and long-term migration, labour mig
 ration, political exile and forced migration, or mobilities related to fami
 ly care or intimacy in older-age. We welcome contributions from different d
 isciplines adopting qualitative, creative or mixed-methods approaches.
