Childhood and Nation explores the historical and manifold current
relations between nation and childhood. Millei and Imre bring
together an international and interdisciplinary group of scholars
to address many pressing questions of today. The analytical
incisions created by nation and childhood bring answers to the
following questions: How do national agendas related to economic,
social and political problems exploit children and tighten their
regulation? How do representations of nations take advantage of
ideals of childhood? Why do nations look to children and search for
those characteristics of childhood that help them solve
environmental and humanitarian issues? The book offers a fresh look
at the theme of nation and childhood by offering multiple
methodologies from fields including education, policy studies,
political science, sociology, anthropology, literature, and
psychology.
