Medicine and healthcare have become central elements in planning later life which can turn into a series of individual and political decision-making regarding various medical and healthcare policy scenarios. Planning Later Life examines the relevance of modern medicine and healthcare in shaping the lives of elderly persons and ageing societies. Combining the individual and social dimension, it discusses the ethical, social, and political consequences of increasing life expectancies and demographic change. By focusing on the field of medicine and healthcare, it engages authors and readers in a dialogue on the ethical and social implications of recent trends in dementia research and care, advance health care planning, or the rise of anti-ageing medicine and prevention. Bringing together the largely separated debates of individualist bioethics on the one hand, and public health ethics on the other, the volume deliberately considers the entanglements of envisioning, evaluating and controlling individual and societal futures.
