Description

Explore the complex relationship between public policy and childhood in this academic work from Routledge. As children gain recognition as social actors and citizens, they simultaneously face increased levels of control and surveillance through various public policies. This book examines the fundamental contradiction between these two realities. By looking at how different conceptual frameworks regarding children result in different childhood experiences, the text provides a deep look into how public provisions, such as schools, are structured. It investigates how our understanding of children shapes the ways we work with them and the services we provide. Through detailed case studies and an analysis of policy and practice, this book demonstrates that making public provisions for children involves significant political and ethical choices. This is an essential resource for those studying political science, social sciences, and the impact of government policy on social groups.
