Sažetak
The paper presents an ethnological and cultural-anthropological reflection of aging and possible approaches to age research based on preliminary field observations of practice and narratives on age and aging in the Croatian capital, Zagreb. The anthropology of aging, the anthropology of the city and the anthropology of family and kinship, as well as the concepts of city-making, public space and active aging, are employed. The paper starts with a description of previous sociocultural research of age. The concept of active aging is critically discussed, and the practices and narrations of age in the context of the Croatian capital are ethnographically described. Attention is given to the specific characteristics of informal and formal practices of old people in the city and advertising discourse within public space advertising. The study presents an analysis of the relationship between aging and the city, age and urban (public) space, and a reflection on the “active aging” paradigm.
