Rezensionen
"This book provides an interesting mix of theory, history and case studies all of which concern the ways that childhoods are changing in response to globalisation. Its international focus and emphasis on the full age range of childhood will make it invaluable

for those in Development Studies, Early Years, as well as those with a more general interest in Childhood Studies." - Children & Society
