Who has the right to a safe and protected childhood? Incarcerated
Childhood and the Politics of Unchilding deepens understanding of
children as political capital in the hands of those in power,
critically engaging children's voices alongside archival,
historical, and ethnographic material in Palestine. Offering the
concept of unchilding', Shalhoub-Kevorkian exposes the political
work of violence designed to create, direct, govern, transform, and
construct colonized children as dangerous, racialized others,
enabling their eviction from the realm of childhood itself.
Penetrating children's everyday intimate spaces and,
simultaneously, their bodies and lives, unchilding works to enable
a complex machinery of violence against Palestinian children:
imprisonment, injuries, loss, trauma, and militarized political
occupation. At the same time as the book documents violations of
children's rights and the consequences this has for their present
and future well-being, it charts children's resistance to and power
to interrupt colonial violence, reclaiming childhood and, with it,
Palestinian futures.
