The contributors to this collection employ the analytic resources
of cultural-historical theory to examine the relationship between
childhood and children's development under different societal
conditions. In particular they attend to relationships between
development, emotions, motives and identities, and the social
practices in which children and young people may be learners. These
practices are knowledge-laden, imbued with cultural values and
emotionally freighted by those who already act in them. The book
first discusses the organising principles that underpin a
cultural-historical understanding of motives, development and
learning. The second section foregrounds children's lives to
exemplify the implications of these ideas as they are played out -
examining how children are positioned as learners in pre-school,
primary school and play environments. The final section uses the
core ideas to look at the implementation of policy aimed at
enhancing children's engagement with opportunities for learning, by
discussing motives in the organisations that shape children's
development.
