Description

This book critically examines why development discourses surrounding the 'poor child' require fundamental revision, challenging the normalised Western frameworks that often measure and reform children in developing regions against an idealised global standard. The author explores the theoretical and methodological challenges in achieving ethical understandings of childhoods and poverty, moving beyond reductive narratives that dominate development activity. By engaging with the cultural politics of childhood, the work investigates how development research and practice can interrogate and unsettle the construction of the global child, offering scholars and practitioners a more nuanced approach to development discourse that moves away from deficit-based portrayals towards more complex, contextualised understandings of children's lives and experiences across different cultural and economic settings.

Key Features

This Routledge publication critiques normative discourses of childhood in development contexts and their limitations.

The book explores ethical frameworks for understanding childhoods and poverty through cultural and political analysis.

It examines how development research can challenge and unsettle established narratives about the global child.

The work addresses theoretical and methodological possibilities for revising conventional development approaches to children.
