Young people, and in particular children, have typically been
marginalised in geopolitical research, positioned as too young to
understand or relate to the adult-dominated world of international
relations. Integrating current debates in critical geopolitics and
political geography with research in children's geographies,
childhood studies and youth research, this book sets out an agenda
for the field of children's and young people's critical
geopolitics. It considers diverse practices such as play, activism,
media consumption and diplomacy to show how children's and young
people's lives relate to wider regional and global geopolitical
processes. Engaging with contemporary concepts in human geography
including ludic geopolitics, affect, emotional geographies,
intergenerationality, creative diplomacy, popular geopolitics and
citizenship, the authors draw on geopolitical research with
children and young people from Europe, Asia, Australasia, Africa
and the Americas. The chapters highlight the ways in which young
people can be enrolled, ignored, dismissed, empowered and
represented by the state for geopolitical ends. Notwithstanding
this state power, the research presented also shows how young
people have agency and make decisions about their lives which are
influenced by wider geopolitical processes. The focus on the lives
of children and young people problematises and extends what it is
we think of when considering 'the geopolitical' which enriches as
well as advances critical geopolitical enquiry and deserves to be
taken seriously by political geographies more broadly.
