商品描述
Arguing for a pro-democratic approach in authoritarian times, this book challenges the focus on age in identifying children in child rights. It argues that, even for the purposes of a benevolent rights regime, adopting a monist construction of child identity artificially separates the law from reality, potentially foreclosing children's democratic deliberative agency in self-identification. An essential feature of other human rights regimes is the scope for a claimant to argue one's identity, or foundationally 'I am a human being;' but such a contention is foreclosed when identification as a child is decided uniquely by reference to age. Drawing on Critical Race Theory's narrative method and inspired by W.E.B. DuBois' identity construction, Professor Grahn-Farley advocates a new theoretical understanding of the child and of child rights, cognisant of social interaction and democratic participation. This book will appeal to researchers in child and human rights, and to sociologists, legal theorists and activists.__This title is part of the Flip it Open programme and may also be available Open Access.

商品描述(中文翻譯)
在威權主義時代主張民主方法的論述中,這本書質疑以年齡來確定兒童權利的焦點。它認為,即使是為了一個仁慈的權利體制,採用單一建構兒童身份的方式人為地將法律與現實分離,可能導致兒童在自我認同中失去民主的思辨能力。其他人權體制的一個重要特點是,申請人可以主張自己的身份,或者基本上是「我是一個人類」;但是,當將兒童身份的確定僅僅通過年齡來參考時,這樣的主張就被排除在外。根據關鍵種族理論的敘事方法,並受到W.E.B. DuBois身份建構的啟發,Grahn-Farley教授主張對兒童和兒童權利進行新的理論理解,充分考慮社會互動和民主參與。這本書將吸引兒童和人權研究人員,以及社會學家、法律理論家和活動家。本書是Flip it Open計劃的一部分,也可能以開放存取的形式提供。詳細信息請查看我們的網站Cambridge Core。
