The most vulnerable groups in society – children and older people, have ill-defined social status, independently of their legal rights. Dr Ginn will explore with those attending how social visibility, status and respect at the ‘bookends of life’ dramatically vary across cultures and in history; and how the tension between safeguarding and liberty can best be managed. Does paternalism protect? The Rotherham Ruckus and the Care Home Crisis provide examples to consider.
