Opis

Brocklehurst's impressive work breaks new ground in normative international political theory. The author develops a new theoretical framework which exposes how children are present in international relations and security practices.

Recenzje

'Who's Afraid of Children clearly and engagingly reveals how and why girls and boys should be taken very seriously if we are to grasp how and why global politics is taking its current path.' Cynthia Enloe, Clark University, USA '...engaging and accessible...Brocklehurst presents a compelling volume on a subject that does not receive the attention it warrants. The role of the child in conflict - and society in general - goes far beyond that of the child soldier.' Political Studies Review
