Protecting Children in Time provides a highly original analysis of
the origins and development of the taken-for-granted notion that it
is possible through social intervention to protect children from
avoidable harm and even death, to protect children in time . By
using case-studies which span the past 120 years of 'modern'
practices and drawing on the work of leading social theorists of
modernity and risk society it provides a new way of thinking about
constructions of child abuse as a social problem and child
protection as a late-modern expert system and experience. It
proposes new ways of conceptualizing relationships between
professionals, children at risk and families and deepens our
understanding of what effective interventions have to involve.
