Age MattersOctober 8, 2013 at 4:30–5:30 p.m.

Professor Calasanti's talk seeks to challenge feminist thinking first, by
highlighting age as a core site of social inequality. She will then demonstrate some of the
ways that taking age relations into account transforms what we know about
gender. In particular, she will share some surprising findings from her research on
spousal caregivers to make clear why age matters when we look at gender and
care.
