Description

This textbook explores the complexities and contexts of children's and young people's lives, encouraging students to examine the multifaceted issues that shape their experiences. The new edition has been updated to address recent developments in theory and understanding, as well as emerging topics such as digital cultures and transnational childhoods.

Drawing on insights from psychology, cultural studies, sociology, anthropology, geography, and education, each chapter challenges students' assumptions and examines crucial issues in the field, including participation, race, rights, law, and sexuality. A holistic approach is taken, combining different perspectives to provide a comprehensive understanding of children's and young people's lives today.
