Description

The Posthuman Child offers a deep look into how we view children in primary, early childhood, and teacher education. Published by Routledge, this book challenges ageist practices found in modern institutions. By using a critical posthumanist perspective, it examines how psychology, sociology, and the philosophy of childhood often position children as inferior in knowledge and being. This text moves beyond theory by including practical examples of philosophical work. It covers interactions with student teachers, professional practitioners, and children aged 3 to 11. Through the use of picturebooks, the book demonstrates how educational transformation can happen by rethinking the purpose of education and the role of the child. It is an essential resource for those looking to understand the complex ways childhood is constructed and contested in academic and practical settings.
