This volume contributes to the ongoing interdisciplinary
controversies about the moral, legal and political status of
children and childhood. It comprises essays by scholars from
different disciplinary backgrounds on diverse theoretical problems
and public policy controversies that bear upon different facets of
the life of children in contemporary liberal democracies. The book
is divided into three major parts that are each organized around a
common general theme. The first part ("Children and Childhood:
Autonomy, Well-Being and Paternalism") focusses on key concepts of
an ethics of childhood. Part two ("Justice for Children") contains
chapters that are concerned with the topics of justice for children
and justice during childhood. The third part ("The Politics of
Childhood") deals with issues that concern the importance of
`childhood as a historically contingent political category and its
relevance for the justification and practical design of political
processes and institutions that affect children and families.
