摘要

本文通过对丹麦老年人身体康复的民族志田野调查,考察了疾病和虚弱的衰老是一个道德成长的过程。采用谢丽尔·马丁利的道德实验室的概念(马丁利2014),这篇文章展示了老年生活,当疾病和虚弱的开始改变时,在与身体的不断谈判中,努力创造美好生活的努力,失败和成功,似乎已经形成了自己的意志。在培训中心,身体是一个可塑和可控的实体,通过测试和训练程序来了解,强调个人责任和积极的老年生活作为一种道德价值。身体不一定符合既定的目标,其他可能的未来也会发挥作用,其中“老年”可以作为一种解释资源,让人们接受脆弱是生命的一部分,并将生命的终结预演和编排。

Active seniors and old farts
Based on ethnographic fieldwork among elderly people in physical rehabilitation in Denmark, the article examines aging with disease and frailty as a process of moral becoming. Employing Cheryl Mattingly’s notion of Moral Laboratory (Mattingly 2014), the article shows how life in old age, when changed by disease and the onset of frailty, is marked by striving, failure and success in the endeavour to create a good life in a constant negotiation with the body that seems to have grown a will of its own. In the training centers the body is a malleable and controllable entity known through tests and training routines, underlining individual responsibility and an active senior life as a moral value. The body does not necessarily comply with the defined goals, and other possible futures come into play, where ‘old age’ can be an explanatory resource in accepting frailty as part of life and the end of life rehearsed and orchestrated.
