This book elaborates the need, in a rapidly urbanizing world, for
recognition of the ecological communities we inhabit in cities and
for the development of an ethics for all entities (human and
non-human) in this context. Children and their entangled relations
with the human and more-than-human world are located centrally to
the research on cities in Bolivia and Kazakhstan, which
investigates the future challenges of the Anthropocene. The author
explores these relations by employing techniques of intra-action,
diffraction and onto-ethnography in order to reveal the
complexities of children's lives. These tools are supported by a
theoretical framing that draws on posthumanist and new materialist
literature. Through rich and complex stories of
space-time-mattering in cities, this work connects children's
voices with a host of others to address the question of what it
means to be a child in the Anthropocene.
