Hi! I'm hoping to add info to and develop this article. Here are some of my initial ideas with potential sources for expansion. Please let me know if anything seems wrong/missing or if you've got any feedback. Thanks! Lmart12 (talk) 20:33, 12 March 2018 (UTC) The information within the article right now seems to rush through several different ideas; these ought to be expanded within the article as subsections. Examples of age stratification in different cultures and societies could improve the readability of the article.

Bibliography: I've compiled a list of potential sources to use in the development of this article:

Weeks, J. R. (2016). Population: an introduction to concepts and issues. Boston, MA: Cengage Learning. The author gives a brief yet informative description regarding age stratification and its place within demography. The source also references other potentially useful sources. Maclean, A. (2006). Age stratification at work: Trends in occupational age segregation in the United States, 1950–2000. Research in Social Stratification and Mobility, 24(3), 299-310. doi:10.1016/j.rssm.2005.08.001 This paper examines age and gender stratification trends in the workplace from 1950-2000 in the United States. The article is dense, but could be useful to build a historical perspective within the article {relatively recent}. Scott, J. (2014). A dictionary of sociology. Oxford, United Kingdom: Oxford University Press. This book seems to have been used for the information already in the article, so the citation is just missing. Foner, A. (1975). Age in Society. American Behavioral Scientist, 19(2), 144-165. doi:10.1177/000276427501900202 Though this source is older {1975}, it has provided the basis for which many other articles are built on. The source focuses majorly on the parallels of age stratification to other social stratification markers, and analyzes the effects of age stratification. Radl, J. (2014). Retirement Timing and Social Stratification A Comparative Study of Labor Market Exit and Age Norms in Western Europe. Berlin: De Gruyter Open. This book examines the social norms and their implications (aging populations) regarding age in the workforce, specifically in Western Europe. The source could be useful to develop the article in terms of why age stratification is important worldwide.
