This volume explores the various challenges faced by migrant
unaccompanied children, using a clinical sociological approach and
a global perspective. It applies a human rights and comparative
framework to examine the reception of unaccompanied children in
European, North American, South American, Asian and African
countries. Some of the important issues the volume discusses are:
access of displaced unaccompanied children to justice across
borders and juridical contexts; voluntary guardianship for
unaccompanied children; the diverse but complementary needs of
unaccompanied children in care, which if left unaddressed can have
serious implications on their social integration in the host
societies; and the detention of migrant children as analyzed
against the most recent European and international human rights law
standards. This is a one-of-a-kind volume bringing together
perspectives from child rights policy chairs across the world on a
global issue. The contributions reflect the authors' diverse
cultural contexts and academic and professional backgrounds, and
hence, this volume synthesizes theory with practice through rich
firsthand experiences, along with theoretical discussions. It is
addressed not only to academics and professionals working on and
with migrant children, but also to a wider, discerning public
interested in a better understanding of the rights of unaccompanied
children.
