随着美国老龄化人口的不断增加，与年龄相关的政策受到了严格的审查，并引发了激烈的争论。人口、经济和政治趋势改变了人们对老年人在美国公共政策中作用的理解。老年政策的新政治提供了对这些政策问题的各种观点-特别是使用实足年龄来确定政府计划资格的相对优点。这些章节涉及基于年龄的政策的理论方法;人口动态以及老年人口中日益增长的多样性如何影响这些政策;围绕主要基于年龄的计划，如社会保障和医疗保险的问题;以及与这些政策相关的国家，州和地方政治问题。
As the aging population of the United States continues to increase, age-related policies have come under intense scrutiny and have sparked heated debates. Demographic, economic, and political trends have transformed the understanding of older people's role in America's public policy. The New Politics of Old Age Policy offers a variety of perspectives on these policy issues - particularly the relative merits of using chronological age to determine eligibility for government programs. The chapters address theoretical approaches to age-based policy; population dynamics and how growing diversity within the older population may affect these policies; issues surrounding major age-based programs such as Social Security and Medicare; and the national, state, and local political issues associated with these policies.
