How do we understand children and young people's lives in ways that
do not rely on nostalgic romantic ideals or demonising prejudices?
Can the geographical concepts of space, place and spatiality
enhance our understanding of childhood and how children experience
their lives as social actors? This book draws on a rich and growing
academic literature concerned with the spatiality of childhood and
the spaces and places in which children live, learn, work, and
play. It examines changing ways of seeing space, place and
environment and how these can promote rethinking about children's
lives across local and global scales. In common with other texts in
the "New Childhoods" series, it asks for a reappraisal of
modernity's assumptions about childhood and for a move towards full
participation of children and young people in matters that concern
us all. Combining critical discussion of theory with examples drawn
from research, Rethinking Children's Spaces and Places offers
readers a language to facilitate rethinking and catalyse active
responses to the challenges of 21st-century childhoods.
