商品簡介
We all have our own idea of what childhood is, but it is surprisingly difficult to pin down - and widely debated among politicians, professionals, academics, and even parents and children themselves. .
This important book questions and analyzes what it is to be a child, focusing on the theory and evidence. Part I identifies aspects of childhood that provide an analytical framework for the book's subsequent discussion. Part II considers "childhood in context" - examining both historical and contemporary evidence from around the world. Part III draws together these discussions to assess the question of whether, and to what extent, childhood is a fixed or fluid phenomenon. Throughout, the author:
- Draws on evidence from an array of cultures, contexts and forms of social organization
- Explores the complementary value of psychological, biological and sociological theories
- Considers anthropological, geographical and environmental influences on children's lives
- Seeks to understand the impact of policy and law on how children are treated and perceived
A Universal Child? makes you think about your own childhood, the world in which today's children live and the variety of experiences which can be defined as a childhood. It provides a clear base for further analysis and debate for all those interested in what it means to be a child, making it invaluable reading for students of Childhood Studies and those studying related social science courses
