OSORIO-PARRAGUEZ, Paulina et al. Life course and families of centenarian women in Chile. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2022, vol.84, n.4, pp.979-1009.  Epub 23-Nov-2022. ISSN 2594-0651.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iis.01882503p.2022.4.60389.

This article analyzes the life trajectories of centenarian women in relation to their family biography, the links with their sociocultural context and the various forms of social inequality. We adopt an intersectional approach to the life course. The methodology is qualitative, focused on the application of life calendars and the elaboration of ethnographic accounts. The results show that gender is a construct that configures their biographical trajectories, highlighting the dependence and interdependence that exist in family, work and social relationships and the principle of agency of centenarian women in their life experiences and aging.

Palabras llave : centenarian women; life course; family; old age; intersectionality; Chile.
