Who's afraid of children?

Enlarge text Shrink text

"Helen Brocklehurst's work breaks new ground in normative international political theory. It develops a new theoretical framework which exposes how children are present in international relations and security practices using an empirical and comparative assessment of the role of children and youth in a range of conflicts including Nazi Germany, Mozambique, South Africa, Northern Ireland, the Cold War and the British Empire. The author argues that concepts of children are partial and 'contained' through their construction as non-political."--Jacket.
