Description
Child Poverty Aspiring to Survive by Morag C. Treanor explores how childhood poverty is conceptualised and operationalised in policy, shedding light on the complex factors that contribute to this issue. Treanor examines the structural, institutional, and ideological factors common across developed nations, aiming to forge a radical pathway for an alternative future. By placing children's experiences at the centre of this critical examination, she seeks to redress the often-misrepresented portrayal of childhood poverty in policy and media discourses. This book offers a nuanced analysis of the contemporary policies and political discourses surrounding poverty in childhood, providing valuable insights into the root causes of this issue and potential solutions.
