This book broadens debates on violence, conflict and peace by
examining the crucial role played by children and youth. Recent
social, political and geographical research has demonstrated that
children and youth are deeply impacted by war and violence and
that, despite strong cultural assumptions about children's needs
for protection, their wellbeing continues to be an afterthought
rather than a central concern of global politics. Children and
youth have also been shown to be more than just passive victims of
violence. They are multiply enrolled in conflict as well as in the
politics of reconciliation and peace. The handbook illustrates
these complexities through a wide range of chapters that review key
literatures on the topic from geographical perspectives and in
diverse global contexts. Demonstrating the centrality of space for
children and youth's positioning within, and responses to, violence
and conflict, the chapters engage with novel conceptual approaches
and up-to-date empirical research to develop nuanced understandings
of different forms of violence in relation to global and local
topographies of power and young people's subjectivities and
agencies. While offering rich insights into context-specific
dynamics, similarities and connections are also outlined between
children and youth in the majority and minority world.
