Abstract

1980'lerden beri sıkça kullanılan küreselleşme kavramı ekonomik bir süreç olarak görülse de, küreselleşmenin sosyal ve kültürel boyutlarının da mevcut olduğu göz ardı edilemez. Küreselleşme tüm dünyayı etkileyen bir süreçtir, özellikle gelişmekte olan ülkeler üzerindeki etkiler daha yoğun hissedilir. Özellikle küreselleşmenin sosyal yapı üzerinde yoğun bir etkisi vardır. Neo-liberal politikalar son yıllarda bu etkilerin artmasında etkili olmuş ve tüm dünyada etkisini göstermiştir. Ulus devletlerin çöküşü, sonuncunun ortaya çıkmasına yol açmış, iletişim ve ulaşım alanında önemli gelişmelere yol açmış, sosyal ve kültürel etkilerin artmasına neden olmuştur. Küreselleşmenin olumsuz etkileri hem yaşlılar hem de tüm toplum tarafından. Günümüzde ortalama yaşam süresi teknolojik gelişmeler ve ilerleyen tiple artmakta, azalan doğum oranları ve toplam nüfus içindeki yaşlıların oranı da artmaktadır. Yaşlılık bireysel bir sorun alanı olarak görünse de, aslında sosyal bir sorun alanıdır. Toplumdaki yaşlı nüfusun artmasıyla birlikte birçok ekonomik, kültürel ve sosyolojik problem de ortaya çıkmaktadır.

Abstract

Although the concept of globalization, which has been used frequently since the 1980s, is considered as an economic process, it can not be overlooked that the social and cultural dimensions of globalization are also present. Globalization is a process that affects the whole world, especially the effects on developing countries are felt more intensely. Globalization in particular has an intense effect on the social structure. Neo-liberal policies have been influential in the increase of these effects in recent years, showing their effect all over the world. The collapse of the nation states led to the emergence of the aftermath of the end, leading to significant developments in the field of communication and transport, resulting in increased social and cultural influences.The negative effects of globalization are influenced by the elderly as well as by the whole society. Today, the average life span increases with the technological developments and the progressive type, with the decreasing birth rates and the proportion of the elderly in the total population is also increasing. Although old age appears as an individual problem area, it is actually a social problem area. Along with the increase in the elderly population in the society, many economic, cultural and sociological problems also arise.
