El respeto de la voluntad de la persona protegida debe convertirse, por imperativo de la Convención de Nueva York, en eje vertebrador de todas las medidas de protección. La inaplazable reforma que debe acometer el legislador español así lo debe consagrar, pero debemos permanecer atentos a que estos cambios, enarbolando banderas comunes a todas las causas, no caigan en el error de consagrar un sistema, políticamente correcto, vacío de contenido en el que los más vulnerables de nuestra sociedad vean incrementada su vulnerabilidad. Por ello, toda reforma debe ir precedida de un trabajo de análisis que ponga de manifiesto las deficiencias del ordenamiento jurídico y proponga soluciones eficaces a los problemas detectados.Esta obra es el fruto de una reflexión colectiva de más de veinte investigadores, procedentes de diferentes universidades de España, Francia, Inglaterra, Estados Unidos, Argelia, Bélgica, Italia y Suiza, en la que se estudian las reformas que se están llevando a cabo y las que se van a realizar para adaptarse a los postulados de la Convención que exige adoptar las medidas pertinentes para garantizar el respeto de la voluntad de la persona, voluntad que debe situarse en el centro de cualquier medida de protección pero, eso sí, anticipando los riesgos de abuso e influencia indebida que existen, para adoptar las salvaguardias que los impidan.La reflexión que cada autor realiza desde la perspectiva de su ordenamiento jurídico, permite, con un abordaje transversal, observar el impacto de las posibles reformas en todos los ámbitos de la vida de la persona ya que se analiza su incidencia tanto en los actos de carácter personal, como el matrimonio y el divorcio o los de carácter médico, hasta los actos de carácter patrimonial como la contratación o la capacidad sucesoria, sin olvidar la cuestión de los derechos políticos, cuyo ejercicio es la mejor expresión de la participación en sociedad de todas las personas con discapacidad.

L’ampleur des enjeux humains, économiques et sociaux posés par la question des solidarités entre générations a conduit l’International society of Family Law (ISFL) à choisir ce thème pour son XVe congrès mondial. Plus de 200 intervenants, venus de 50 pays, ont abordé ces questions sous l’angle juridique, mais aussi philosophique, économique et anthropologique. Cet ouvrage présente une partie de ces communications organisées autour de deux grands thèmes : l’enfant au cœur des solidarités familiales et la prise en charge des aînés par la famille. Des phénomènes tels que l’allongement de la durée de la vie, l’urbanisation des populations, la difficulté d’entrée sur le marché du travail ou encore l’éclatement des modèles familiaux traditionnels marquent notre monde contemporain et impliquent la disparition d’anciennes solidarités et l’apparition de nouvelles solidarités redessinant les relations entre générations, posant alors le problème du sort des personnes les plus fragiles : les enfants, les malades, les handicapés et, surtout, les personnes âgées. – Quel est alors le rôle de la famille et des collectivités dans la protection de ces personnes ? – Quels rapports entre solidarités publiques et solidarités privées ? – Quels sont les droits et libertés reconnus aux personnes que l’âge, la maladie ou le handicap, placent en situation de dépendances ? Telles sont les questions au cœur de cet ouvrage. The importance of the human, economic and social issues caused by the question of generations’ solidarities led the International Society of Family Law to choose this theme for its XVIth World Congress (Lyon, July 19-23rd 2011). More than 200 speakers from 50 countries studied these questions from the legal angle, but also philosophic, economic and anthropological. This work collects a part of these papers about two great issues: the child, as the center of family solidarities; and the support for elders by family. Phenomena such as increasing life expectancy, population urbanization, labor-market entry barriers, decline of traditional family patterns, mark in depth our contemporary world and involve old solidarity disappearance and new solidarity emergence, reshaping relations between generations while bringing up the problem of the fate of the most vulnerable: children, the sick, disabled, and especially elderly people. – What then is the role of families and communities in protecting these people? – What is the relationship between public and private solidarity? – What are the rights and freedoms of people placed by age, illness or disability in a dependence situation? These are the issues addressed by the authors of this book.

This important book builds on recent publications in lifelong learning which focus on learning and education in later life. This work breaks new ground in international understandings of what constitutes later life learning across diverse cultures in manifold countries or regions across the world. Containing 42 separate country/regional analyses of later life learning, the overall significance resides in insiders’ conceptualisations and critique of this emerging sub-field of lifelong learning and adult education. International perspectives on older adult education provides new appreciation of what is happening in countries from Europe (14), Africa (10), the Americas (7), Asia (9) and Australasia (2), as authored by adult educators and/or social gerontologists in respective geographical areas. These analyses are contextualised by a thorough introduction and critical appraisal where trends and fresh insights are revealed. The outcome of this book is a never-before available critique of what it means to be an older learner in specific nations, and the accompanying opportunities and barriers for learning and education. The sub-title of research, policy and practice conveys the territory that authors traverse in which rhetoric and reality are interrogated. Coverage in chapters includes conceptual analysis, historical patterns of provision, policy developments, theoretical perspectives, research studies, challenges faced by countries and “success stories” of later life learning. The resultant effect is a vivid portrayal of a vast array of learning that occurs in later life across the globe.
