The very notions of childhood and youth are intimately connected to
contemporary norms, practices and spaces of care, caring and
care-giving. The provision of care is widely figured as both the
primary responsibility of parents, carers and practitioners who
work with children and young people, and the primary factor in
shaping children and young people's development, education,
socialisation, wellbeing and contentment. However, children and
young people themselves are rarely figured as key actors in the
provision of care. An overwhelming presumption that children and
young people are to be cared for has effectively marginalised their
agency and responsibilities as carers, or in relation to practices
and spaces of care. Bringing together a significant array of
multidisciplinary work on children, young people and families, this
collection draws together new research on the diverse lives and
experiences of children and young people as carers, as cared for,
and in relation to spaces and institutions of care. It is the first
collection specifically devoted to the subject of care in relation
to childhood and youth. As such, the book will be a key resource
for academics, practitioners and students seeking leading-edge
empirical and conceptual material on this topic.
