Recenzii
'This edited collection is an especially welcome contribution to the development of childhood studies in Africa because it explores the agency children across the continent are able to demonstrate despite the structural constraints within their societies. The interplay between structure and agency as they relate to children’s daily lives is the overarching theme of ten substantive chapters. As part of the editors’ goal of highlighting children’s agency, a secondary theme of the volume is innovative, childfocused methodologies that are appropriate within African contexts.
...
As in many edited collections, some chapters in this one speak very strongly to the aims and objectives of the book, while others struggle to show their relevance. Nevertheless, I welcome the contribution the collection as a whole makes to theorizing about childhood studies in Africa'.
