Child in the World/The World in the Child, The: Education and the Configuration of a Universal, Modern, and Globalized Childhood (Electronic book text)

The contributors look at universalizing discourses concerning young children across the globe, which purport to describe everyone in a scientific and neutral way, but actually create mechanisms through which children are divided and excluded. The contributors to this book employ post-structuralist, postcolonial, and feminist theoretical frameworks.
