Felicity Slocombe and Chloe Waterman - Dementia and stigma through the lenses of neuro-culture and neoliberalism

Felicity Slocombe, narrates her blog co-authored with Chloe Waterman written for the Dementia Researcher website.

This blog has been written after myself and my colleague Chloe realised the similarity and overlap of two theories we use respectively in our PhD research. We hope to show how neuro-culture (Chloe) and neoliberalism (Felicity) are negatively impacting people with dementia. If we can understand and accept that we live within these cultures in society, we may better understand the continued stigmatisation of dementia? Listen and we will explain.

Find the original text, and narration here on our website.
