This textbook showcases innovative approaches to the
interdisciplinary field of childhood and youth studies, examining
how young people in a wide range of contemporary and historical
contexts around the globe live their young lives as subjects,
objects, and agents. The diverse contributions examine how children
and youth are simultaneously constructed: as individual subjects
through social processes and culturally-specific discourses; as
objects of policy intervention and other adult power plays; and
also as active agents who act on their world and make meaning even
amidst conditions of social, political, and economic
marginalization. In addition, the book is centrally engaged with
questions about how researchers take into consideration children's
and young people's own conceptions of themselves and how we
conceptualize child and youth potentials for agency at different
ages and stages of growing up. Each chapter discusses substantive
research but also engages in self-reflection about methodology,
positionality, and/or disciplinarity, thus making the volume
especially useful for teaching. This book will be of interest to
students and scholars across a range of disciplines, including
childhood studies, youth studies, girls' studies, development
studies, research methods, sociology, anthropology, education,
history, geography, public policy, cultural studies, gender and
women's studies and global studies.
