Pauline Garvey, "Ageing with Smartphones in Ireland: When Life Becomes Craft"
English | ISBN: 1787359689 | 2021 | 254 pages | EPUB | 5 MB
On the role smartphones play in the lives of the aging in contemporary Ireland.
This volume documents a radical change in the experience of aging. Based on two ethnographies in Dublin, Ireland, the book illustrates how smartphones enable old people to focus on crafting a new life in retirement. For some, the smartphone is an intimidating burden linked to being on the wrong side of a new digital divide. But for most, however, it has become integral to a new trajectory towards a more sustainable life, both for themselves and their environment. The smartphone has reunited extended family and old friends, helped resolve intergenerational conflicts though new forms of grandparenting, and has become a health resource. This is a book about acknowledging late middle age in contemporary Ireland and examines how older people in Ireland experience life today.
