Childhoods at the Intersection of the Local and the Global examines
the imposition of the modern Western notion of childhood, which is
now deemed as universal, on other cultures and explores how local
communities react to these impositions in various ways such as
manipulation, outright rejection and acceptance. The book discusses
childhoods in different regions of the world and boasts a range of
contributors from several academic disciplines such as Sociology,
Social Work, Education, Anthropology, Criminology and Human Rights,
who are experts on the regions they discuss. The book argues
against the notion of a universal childhood and illustrates that
different societies around the world have different notions of
childhood. This book is recommended reading for students, scholars
and practitioners working with children in the Global South as well
as internationally.
