The second volume of Priscilla Alderson's popular and renowned book
Childhoods Real and Imagined relates dialectical critical realism
to childhood. By demonstrating their relevance and value to each
other, Alderson presents a practical introductory guide for
applying critical realism to research about children and young
people. Each chapter summarises key themes from several academic
disciplines and policy areas, ranging from climate change and
social justice between generations, to neoliberalism, social reform
and imagining utopias. Children's and adults' views and experiences
are reviewed, and whereas the first volume deals with more personal
and local aspects of childhood, this volume widens the scope into
debates about global politics, which so seldom mention children.
Each chapter demonstrates how children and young people are an
integral part of the whole of society and are often especially
affected by policies and events. This book is written for everyone
who is researching, studying or teaching about childhood, or who
cares for and works with children and young people, as well as
those interested in critical realist approaches.
