AnnotationArticles presented in this special issue of Education and Ageing explore various themes connected with social theory, ageing and identity. They represent different attempts to explore sociological and social anthropological perspectives of growing old, and the interaction between ageing societies and ageing selves. Articles encompass existence of a cultural sociology of ageing; consumers and identity; social identity in later life; personhood in Alzheimer's disease (AD); and the role of services in relation to older people's identities.
