Abstract:
The objective of this article is to present an analysis of human aging, from the perspective of critical gerontology, reconstructing the homogeneities in the experiences of aging and old age on new bases, both historical and ontological. Presenting an updated picture of social determinants without which the analysis of ways of aging would be mere abstractions. It is an article resulting from theoretical research, with qualitative methodology and intentional choice of bibliographic references. It is concluded that the changes in course, result from the offensive of the dominant class against the working class, which generalizes over-exploitation, the contingent of people left over and poverty threatening the future of the current generations, and their aging with dignity.
