This article analyzes the sociological theories and contemporary scientific approaches to healthy longevity. It examines the social determinants influencing healthy longevity, including the family institution, social capital, social support, intergenerational solidarity, social participation, and quality of life. The paper discusses the theoretical perspectives of Talcott Parsons, Pierre Bourdieu, and Robert Putnam, as well as the concepts of healthy ageing and active ageing. The findings indicate that healthy longevity should be understood not only as a biological process but also as a complex sociological phenomenon shaped by social institutions, social relationships, and support mechanisms within society.
