Abstract: | As one expects, gender issues represent one major theme in the academic analysis of older adult learning. Ever since the second feminist revolution in the late 1970s, gender studies gained a pivotal position in all domains of societal analysis. Latelife learning was surely no exception, spearheaded not only by the awareness that the female-to-male ratio increases dramatically in older people, but also due to the fact that older women comprise more than three-quarters of older learning populations. |
