Abstract

Due to increased life expectancy, many people now live to a great age. This new time of existence calls into question the traditional norm of a ternary life cycle, and the definition of public action toward old people. Around this last stage of the life course, we can observe a transformation of public policy. This article analyzes the original forms of local public action and the paradigm shift in institutional normative frameworks for management of long life. It examines the role of three lines of public action-successful ageing, territorial development and technology for health and autonomy-as original basis of the new culture of ageing problems, and as levers of change for the actors concerned.
