Nieuw engelstalig boek over kinderrechten voor de jongste groep kinderen

Priscilla Alderson examines the often overlooked issue of the rights of young children, starting with the question of how the 1989 UN Convention on the Rights of the Child applies to the youngest children, from birth to eight years of age.
This second edition has been updated and expanded to include the relevance of UNCRC rights of premature babies, international examples such as the Chinese one-child policy, children’s influence on regional policies, and the influence on young children’s lives of policies such as Every Child Matters and those of the World Bank, IMF, OECD and UNICEF.
This readable, informative and thought-provoking book is a compelling invitation to rethink our attitudes to young children’s rights in the light of new theories, research and practical evidence about children’s daily lives. It will be of interest to anyone who works with young children.
