Diverse international perspectives on the ways in which young
children's learning and care may be supported converge in this
book. Traversing the field of early childhood education and care
from its established philosophical underpinnings to 21st century
research, policies, and practices, the contributions to this volume
draw together past and present discourses as a basis for shaping
future trajectories. In spite of a growing international consensus
on the strong influence of early childhood experiences on lifetime
outcomes, the nineteen chapters reveal contemporary early childhood
pedagogy as a collection of spaces characterised by plurality,
complexity, and dissonance. These characteristics signal the
importance of recognising early childhood pedagogies: multiple
models of practice for the many diverse learning and care contexts
that have the capacity to value young children as individuals and
enable each to flourish now and throughout their lives. Moreover,
such characteristics disrupt notions that a single 'optimal' early
childhood pedagogy is either possible or desirable. This exciting
global collection of empirical research reports and discursive
papers provides inspiration to spark new reflections, fresh
debates, and innovative endeavours among early childhood students,
practitioners, researchers, and policymakers around the world. This
book was originally published as a special issue of Early Child
Development and Care.
