The research identifies individual autonomy and participation in decision-making as fundamental to?a human rights-based approach to elder law. The book argues that a paradigm shift must occur away from traditional medical and charity-based understandings of ‘old age’ to instead acknowledge older persons as active holders of enforceable rights. The book argues that a Convention on the Rights of Older Persons is an essential tool in achieving this, but that even without a dedicated treaty there is much to be gained from a human rights-based approach. Significantly, because the issues arising in ‘old age’ are often the culmination of experiences occurring throughout the life course, a human rights-based approach to elder law must begin with a commitment to human rights for people of all ages.?. | | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | | 關(guān)鍵詞 | Elder Law; Elder Abuse; Aging Population; Human Rights; Social Policy; Ageism; Legal Capacity; Aged Care; Re | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-15-6735-3 | | isbn_softcover | 978-981-15-6737-7 | | isbn_ebook | 978-981-15-6735-3 | | copyright | Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2020 |
