Violence Against Children adopts in its title the exhortation of
Nobel Laureate Amartya Sen, "Making Human Rights Real," which also
represents the leitmotif of the book. It examines the prevalence of
violence against children in Africa, the Asia Pacific Region,
Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, and in the United States,
and explores major ways of its prevention. Making human rights real
engenders the challenge of helping all children to be free from
violence and to lead a life replete with genuine nurture and the
elimination of all violence. Only in this manner will the goal of
the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development -target
16.2-be achieved and the child as a rights-bearing individual
realized in her/his fullness. The specially commissioned chapters
that make up the volume have been written by renowned scholars,
researchers and advocates. They coalesce to provide an overview of
the challenges facing children exposed to violence worldwide, and
they advance discussions of the measures which are available and
necessary for the prevention of violence against children. The book
is intended for policy-makers, researchers and students of the
social sciences and human rights who are interested in ending all
the widespread maltreatment of children in our societies and our
time.
