What if 100 is the new 80?
Let's imagine that we all had a life expectancy of 100 years. Would that be a blessing for personal freedom or a burden on our society?
A new episode of Quarks’ “Mal angenommen” podcast, featuring Martina Brandt as an expert, is dedicated to precisely this future scenario.
The podcast team explores fascinating questions in the sociology of aging:
- How will our working lives change if we stay healthy for much longer?
- How do we organize care and foster intergenerational solidarity?
- And if we live to be 100, will there even be time left for “retirement” as we know it today?
Be sure to give it a listen! The episode is available on all major podcast apps.
