title = "Age-arrangements, Age-culture and Social Citizenship: A Conceptual Framework for an Institutional and Social Analysis",
abstract = "This chapter considers the various interrelationships between the three guiding foci: changing labour markets, changing {\textquoteleft}welfare states{\textquoteright} and citizenship. Age-culture is the shorthand description of social norms, values, ideals or perceptions in society that structure the ideas of the age-work relationship. This interpretation of institutions is the dominant one in sociology. Age-related social norms can be reflected by many other concepts in a society. One particularly interesting concept in this context is the so-called {\textquoteleft}seniority-principle{\textquoteright}. Actor-constellations form the third relevant institutional dimension to analyse the changing age-work relations. Age-cultures and age-programmes cannot explain all changes within one country or the differences between countries. {\textquoteleft}Age-culture{\textquoteright}, {\textquoteleft}age-programmes{\textquoteright} and {\textquoteleft}actor-constellations{\textquoteright} are all inter-linked and all three institutional dimensions can and will influence one another. In the end, the combined effect of these three dimensions is a particular {\textquoteleft}age-arrangement{\textquoteright}, in a particular society, at a particular historical point in time.",
