Description

This thought-provoking book by Routledge examines how social and family transformations shape childhood experiences in the modern world. Centred on three major shifts - parental employment, family composition, and ideology - the work analyses how children's families adapt to demographic and economic changes driven by parental choices. The authors challenge the notion that society has become truly child-centred, arguing instead that children retain limited influence over the significant life changes affecting them. Essential reading for sociologists, educators, and anyone studying contemporary childhood within evolving family structures, this book provides valuable insights into the complex relationship between societal transformation and children's lived experiences.

Key Features

Routledge publication focuses on three major family changes: parental employment, family composition, and ideology shaping childhood.

Analyses how children's families transform through demographic and economic shifts alongside parental decision-making responses.

Examines the gap between child-centred society claims and children's actual influence over major life changes.

Combines sociology, anthropology, and social science perspectives on family structure and childhood experiences.

Explores the interplay between societal transformation and how children negotiate their evolving family environments.
