Annotation | This paper comments on the relative importance of the family and the state over a long period by focusing on two particular features of old age - the co-residential experience of older people, and their sources of income. It does so by reference to and comparison of two surveys: the New Survey of London 1930-34, and the General Household Survey (GHS) (1979-81 editions). (RH). |
