This volume addresses children and young people's relationships
both within and beyond the context of the family. It begins with
familial relationships and the home by examining the social and
cultural complexities of families, intimacies and
interdependencies, including the dynamics of families as spatial
units (nuclear, multi-generational, alternative) and the roles that
children play (as carers etc.). In addition to considering
child/parent relations, sibling relationships and birth order, the
initial section includes particular dimensions of children's
familial relationships in diverse contexts, such as family food
practices, aspirations and work practices. The second section
explores geographical dimensions of adult/child relationships
beyond the dynamics of the family and across the lifecourse. It
considers the roles that intergenerationality plays in children's
and young people's lives as well as their links with wider
communities. The section addresses broader conceptual issues and
themes (child-adult relationships outside the home;
intergenerational geographies and spaces; and the intergenerational
city) while also providing more focused discussions of current
issues related to the geographies of intergenerationality including
adoption, looked after children and fertility. The final section
addresses children and young people's relationships with one
another: friendship, peer group relations, and sexualities. It
explores the geographies and spatialities of affective relations
and emotional practices among children and young people.
Geographies of bodies and embodiment and their connection to
identities is an important part of this section. The chapters range
from cross-cultural comparisons of age mixing among children to
specific kinds of relationship formations between children and
young people (e.g. friendship; sexual relations; gangs; bullying)
and the spaces and places (including cyberspace) that facilitate,
impede and organise these relationships. The diverse relationships
that children and young people form with both one another and with
adults have significant geographical dimensions.
