- Summary:
- "Marking the 30th anniversary of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), this seminal handbook will provide an authoritative, critical overview of the diverse ways that the rights of children aged 0 - 8 are respected or neglected throughout the world, and will consider how policy, practice, and research might address the barriers to universal respect for children's rights. Drawing together original contributions from world-leading experts and new thinkers in the fields of early childhood education and care and children's rights, the book will promote global debate and offer a unique synthesis of theory and empirical research knowledge from these two fields"-- Provided by publisher.
