【 摘 要 】

Housing and the environment have for a long time occupied a secondary place in policies orientated towards ageing. At the same time, housing policies that incorporate the dimensions of demographic transformations are relatively recent. Using the recommendations and actions in terms of housing and ageing in the national plans of two countries, France and the United Kingdom, this paper shows how different visions and representations of ageing influence social policy. In France, a medicalised approach that represents older people as dependent is highly influential, whilst in the UK, attempts are being made to rethink old age and the process of ageing. Through inter-governmental ministry cooperation, the UK is currently engaging in a housing policy that is relevant for the whole population, and not directed solely towards older people. The need to reconsider the place of housing and the environment without age barriers is also beginning to emerge in France.
