Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Graduate SchoolSammanfattning : Since the 1970s, neoliberal policies worldwide have been affecting the organization of care in welfare regimes and the working conditions of care workers.

10. "I am What I am. My Own Special Creation" : A qualitative interview study on queer ageing and eldercare.
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Genusvetenskapliga institutionenSammanfattning : The objective of this Master’s thesis is to expand scholarship on ageing and eldercare through the lens of queer gerontology; to develop said scholarship on the queering of eldercare through the experiences of LGBTQ+ seniors and LGBTQ+ certified eldercare practitioners. Through four interviews with LGBTQ+ seniors and abovementioned practitioners, the core findings of the thesis put to question the collective subjectivity that is LGBTQ+ seniors, as neither LGBTQ+ informant thought of sexuality as an identity, but rather a practice.
