Children's voices about children's rights: thoughts from developmental psychology N2 - While the notion of young people as individuals worthy or capable of having rights is of relatively recent origin, over the past several decades there has been a substantial increase in both social and political commitment to children's rights as well as a tendency to grant young people some of the rights that were typically accorded only to adults. In addition, there has been a noticeable shift in orientation from a focus on children's protection and provision to an emphasis on children's participation and self-determination. With contributions from a wide range of international scholars, this book brings together research, theory, and practice from diverse perspectives on children's rights.--Publisher's description ER -
