Working to be Someone presents an overview of worldwide research on
working children that considers children's own views of employment
in favour of adult-constructed arguments about child work. This
book brings together contributions by internationally renowned
researchers who are committed to a 'subject-orientated' approach as
well as views and observations of activists from organizations that
either work with child labour or support working children's
movements. Chapters examine the traditionally widespread care and
domestic work carried out by children, discuss localized
explorations of working children - for example in Morocco, India
and Europe - as well as consider work as a means for children to
contribute economically to the family. Contributors also discuss
children's movements and organizations in Africa, Asia and South
America that claim work as a necessity for survival as well as a
key to children's own agency and citizenship. This book is a key
text for both academics and social work practitioners that
encourages re-evaluation of the notion of childhood and understands
the complex phenomenon of working children.
