Innocence, Knowledge and the Construction of Childhood - The contradictory nature of sexuality and censorship in... Innocence, Knowledge and the Construction of Childhood - The contradictory nature of sexuality and censorship in children's contemporary lives (Hardcover, New)
Kerry H. Robinson
R3,881 Discovery Miles 38 810 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Innocence, Knowledge and the Construction of Childhood provides a critical examination of the way we regulate children s access to certain knowledge and explores how this regulation contributes to the construction of childhood, to children s vulnerability and to the constitution of the good future citizen in developed countries.

Through this controversial analysis, Kerry H. Robinson critically engages with the relationships between childhood, sexuality, innocence, moral panic, censorship and notions of citizenship. This book highlights how the strict regulation of children s knowledge, often in the name of protection or in the child s best interest, can ironically, increase children s prejudice around difference, increase their vulnerability to exploitation and abuse, and undermine their abilities to become competent adolescents and adults. Within her work Robinson draws upon empirical research to:

  • provide an overview of the regulation and governance of children s access to difficult knowledge, particularly knowledge of sexuality
  • explore and develop Foucault s work on the relationship between childhood and sexuality
  • identify the impact of these discourses on adults understanding of childhood, and the tension that exists between their own perceptions of sexual knowledge, and the perceptions of children
  • reconceptualise children s education around sexuality.
"

Innocence, Knowledge and the Construction of Childhood" is essential reading for both undergraduate and postgraduate students undertaking courses in education, particularly with a focus on early childhood or primary teaching, as well as in other disciplines such as sociology, gender and sexuality studies, and cultural studies.

Feminists Researching Gendered Childhoods - Generative Entanglements (Hardcover): Jayne Osgood, Kerry H. Robinson Feminists Researching Gendered Childhoods - Generative Entanglements (Hardcover)
Jayne Osgood, Kerry H. Robinson
R3,937 Discovery Miles 39 370 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Feminists Researching Gendered Childhoods charts the evolving nature of feminist theory and research methods in childhood studies and the generative potential this holds for researchers, academics and educators to continue to push ideas and practices. The book traces the threads of affect and effect that feminist theories and methodologies have made over time to thinking more, and differently, about gender in childhood. In the wake of the 'new materialist turn' in feminist research, the book sought to address two pressing questions: what is especially new about feminist new materialism, and what is especially feminist about feminist new materialism. These questions are generative, troubling, unsettling and invited the contributors on an adventure that involved re-turning and reconfiguring ideas and practices about gender and childhood. Along with the editors, Jayne Osgood (UK), and Kerry H. Robinson (Australia), five key international feminist scholars, Mindy Blaise (Australia), Bronwyn Davies (Australia), Debbie Epstein (UK), Jen Lyttleton-Smith (UK), and Veronica Pacini-Ketchabaw (Canada) collaborated on this book project. Their reflective accounts capture the contribution of their own work and that of their peers, to advancing research practices and theorisations of gender in childhood. Having all approached the study of gendered childhoods in creative and critical ways, these important feminist researchers re-engage and critically reflect on their earlier work alongside their more contemporary contributions to the field. The book is as much about the processes involved in its creation as it about the material/digital end product. The chapters work with both familiar and unfamiliar feminist methodological frameworks that bring affect, materiality and embodiment, as well as textual representations of gender and childhood, into play. The book engages with, and generates artwork, poetry, photographs as a means to grapple with how gender, childhood, family, curriculum and policy have been, and might be researched. The book captures a lively, collaborative, feminist experiment that sought to make space for fresh conceptualisations of gender in childhood. Issues addressed include: social justice and transformative methodologies in childhood research; advancing theoretical perspectives that contribute to fresh understandings of gender in young children's lives; the ways that research into gender in childhood play out in educational agendas; and the specific gender issues perceived critical to address in contemporary childhoods lived in the post-Anthropocene.
