Environment in the Lives of Children and Families: Perspectives from India and the UK
Autor Ann Phoenix, Janet Boddy, Catherine Walker, Uma Vennamen Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 sep 2017
This new Policy Press Short presents innovative international research into how the term “environment” is understood within families and how that plays out in everyday lives. Based on a study that involved creative qualitative work with families in India and the United Kingdom, it shows how environmental practices are negotiated in families, and how they relate to values, identities, and society. Through that analysis, we begin to see the ways in which families and childhood are constructed as sites for intervention in debates about climate change.
