Describes how different societies respond to problems experienced in the matter of public protection for the elderly and reasons for their response. Discusses the basic principles of grid-group theory, which is an approach that explains how individuals obtain a limited variety of answers to central social questions like how the world works. This theory is used to assist in the understanding of making decisions in relation to social policy.
