Working title
They were the future once: oppression in the lives of older people
Supervisors
Dr Luke Ulas (Politics); Dr Lorna Warren (Sociological Studies)
In her work on 'the five faces of oppression', Iris Marion Young identifies older people as an oppressed social group. My research takes this claim seriously. However, I argue that Young understated the extent of oppression in the lives of older people.
My research is interdisciplinary in nature, and I also work with empirical and archival data. Research interests - critical theory; Hannah Arendt; health and social care; critical gerontology; methodology in political theory; theology and political theory.
