DESCRIPTION:This seminar focuses on findings from studies examining the so
 cially shared understanding of what it means to live together with a relat
 ive with dementia and be a good caregiver\, i.e. the social representation
 s of dementia caregiving. Nils Töpfer draws on an analysis of frames and 
 counter-frames in a recent blockbuster movie on Alzheimer’s disease (“
 Head Full of Honey”) as wells as an analysis of anchoring of dementia ca
 re in newspaper articles and interviews with dementia caregivers. He will 
 discuss the findings in relation to the psychosocial issues of (de-)stigma
 tization\, caregiver burden\, service utilization and organization of deme
 ntia care.
