The Human Rights of Children: From Visions to Implementation de Antonella Invernizzi

The Human Rights of Children: From Visions to Implementation

Autor Antonella Invernizzi Editat de Jane Williams
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 oct 2016
This volume provides a series of critical analyses of some of the contemporary debates in relation to the human rights of children, resituating them within visions which informed the text of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989. The studies embrace examination of some of today's widespread interpretations of the CRC, analysis of what is implied by a human rights-based approach in research and advocacy and consideration of advances and barriers to research and to several aspects of CRC implementation. With contributions by leading experts in the field, the book examines the CRC as an international instrument, its inherent dilemmas and some of the debates generated by the challenges of implementation. It embraces examinations of different levels of governance from the international to the state party, regional and local levels, including institutional developments and changes in law, policy and practice. The book will be a valuable resource for students, researchers and policy-makers working in the area of children's rights and welfare.

Recenzii

'Anyone who wishes to understand children's rights as human rights, to engage with the ongoing challenges associated with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, or to meaningfully empower children themselves to make use of their rights, will find helpful and in-depth suggestions in this book.' Manfred Liebel, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany 'This book firmly repositions children’s rights where they belong: in the realm of human rights. It makes a most welcome case for taking the Convention on the Rights of the Child seriously also as a human rights instrument. It thus makes a distinct contribution to a growing body of critical self-reflection within the children’s rights community.' Wouter Vandenhole, University of Antwerp Law Research School, Belgium
