"Thinking Children" investigates the concept of 'child' from a
philosophical perspective. Its aim is to come to an acceptable
definition of 'child', and it is anticipated that such a definition
will impact on how those seen as children are perceived in
society.The author first explores the notions of personhood, self
and identity, before reflecting on historical perspectives on
childhood and the inclusion of children as active, participative,
political and philosophical agents within society today.Children
and adults are placed differently society, and through coming to an
acceptable definition of 'child', this book seeks to determine
whether such differential status is merited. "Thinking Children"
proposes that we might consider children as beings and not
becomings, and empower them to be active and participative
citizens, since they are able and adept reasoners.
