Although child soldiers have received considerable media and policy
attention, they remain poorly understood and inadequately
protected. This Research Handbook addresses this troubling gap by
offering a reflective and nuanced review of the complex issue of
child soldiering. Containing original contributions from leading
experts in many disciplines working across six continents, this
comprehensive Handbook showcases diverse experiences and unique
perspectives. The Handbook unpacks the life-cycle of youth and
militarization: from recruitment, to demobilization, and return to
civilian life. Challenging prevailing assumptions and conceptions,
this uplifting Handbook focuses on the child soldier's capacity to
cope with adversity. In so doing, it emphasizes the resilience,
humanity and potential of children affected - rather than
'afflicted' - by armed conflict. The Research Handbook on Child
Soldiers will be of interest to academics, practitioners and
activists alike, with its extensive incorporation of cutting-edge
fieldwork and the voices of the children themselves. Promoting
equity between generations, this Handbook will also appeal to
individuals from many walks of life who are concerned with the
rights of the child in times of conflict, peace, and the
in-between.
