Ageism In America
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Respect for the elderly is a fast dwindling characteristic of American society. Historically revered for their sage wisdom and life experience, the older sect of society in contemporary society is treated as more of an imposition rather than a valued cultural commodity. Quoting Traxler, Woolf (2007) defines ageism as "any attitude, action, or institutional structure which subordinates a person or group because of age or any assignment of roles in society purely on the basis of age" (Woolf, 2007); as such, it is clear how this "ism" has infiltrated virtually every aspect of society to the extent where seniors are often treated with indignity and contempt.

The United States work force is starting an interesting period of time : four defined generations of workers are all competing for the same space. All four have qualities that employers are looking for, all four have liabilities which can be compensated by one or more of the other groups. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
