The ethnographic case studies conducted in rural and urban India and Burkina Faso show that large parts of the poor population are ageing in insecurity. Not only public support is insufficient, but family support is also limited and thus a delicate matter. The issue of gender is a special focus of interest. The book contributes to the expanding field of social security studies in the social sciences which try to give answers to crucial issues in today's societies. Les etudes de cas ethnographiques menees en milieux rural et urbain en Inde et au Burkina Faso revelent que des pans entiers de la population pauvre vieillissent aujourd'hui dans 1'insecurite sociale. Outre le fait que 1'aide publique est insuffisante, le soutien familial s'avere lui aussi limite et constitue une affaire delicate. La question du genre fait l'objet d'une attention particuliere. Cet ouvrage se veut une contribution dans le domaine en developpement des etudes sur la securite sociale dans les sciences sociales qui s'evertuent à proposer des elements de reponse aux problemes cruciaux auxquels sont eonfrontees les societes actuelles.
