AnnotationThe work of postmodern and feminist philosophers such as Jean François Lyotard and Luce Irigaray has a special relevance for the study of ageing. It paves the way towards a more intricate perspective on subjectivity and rationality, allowing for a more adequate view on the relation between theory and practice, and the role of values in the practice of care.
