'Aging in place' has become a key conceptual framework for understanding and addressing place within the aging process. However, aging in place has been critiqued for not sufficiently providing tools to understand relations or transactions between aging and place, and for not matching the diversity of contemporary society in which people are moving between and across nations more than ever before. In this article, the authors draw from concepts of place and migration that are becoming increasingly visible in occupational science. The concept of 'aging in place' is critically examined as an example of an ideal where the understanding of place is insufficiently dynamic in a context of migration. The authors suggest that the concept of place making can instead be a useful tool to understand how occupation can be drawn upon to negotiate relationships that connect people to different places around the world, how the negotiated relations are embedded within the occupations that fill daily lives, and how this process is contextualized and enacted in relation to resources and capabilities.
“就地养老”已成为理解和应对老龄化过程中场所问题的关键概念框架。然而，“就地养老”受到了批评，因为它没有充分提供理解老龄化与场所之间关系或互动的工具，也没有契合当代社会的多样性，在当代社会中，人们跨国流动的频率比以往任何时候都更高。在本文中，作者借鉴了职业科学中日益凸显的场所和迁移概念。“就地养老”这一概念作为一个理想范例受到了批判性审视，即在迁移背景下，对场所的理解缺乏足够的动态性。作者认为，场所营造的概念反而可以成为一个有用的工具，用以理解如何利用职业来协商将人们与世界各地不同场所联系起来的关系，协商关系如何嵌入充实日常生活的职业之中，以及这一过程如何根据资源和能力进行情境化并得以实施。
