The importance of early childhood education has been emphasized by
a large body of research that has demonstrated that children's
cognitive and socio-emotional development is significantly
influenced by the quality of the education and care received from
their families and in preschool. Consequently, it is important to
investigate factors that pertain to the provision of a high-quality
education and high-quality care for young children. This book
addresses several important issues that are currently under
discussion with respect to this topic. In particular, the book
focuses on three topics presently under debate: the
professionalization of pedagogues working in the field of early
childhood education; the quality of education and care provided by
families and preschools; and the promotion of children from
socio-economically disadvantaged families. Providing an excellent
overview of current research in Germany, this book will be useful
to readers who are interested in international perspectives on
early childhood education and who want to gain insight into
relevant topics discussed in other countries. This book was
originally published as a special issue of Early Child Development
and Care.
