内容説明

Children and child welfare sit at the heart of New Labour's plans for social inclusion - but how does the government view 'children' - is it reflecting public opinion, or leading it? How does New Labour perceive 'child welfare'? What are the motivations behind, and objectives of, current social policy for children? Are the 'Rights of the Child' being subsumed under 'duties and responsibilities'? This revisionist account provides critical answers to these questions within a historical framework and from a child-centred perspective. The book not only offers a provocative account of contemporary policies and the ideological thrust behind them, but also provides an informed historical perspective on the evolution of child welfare during the last century.

内容説明

Children and child welfare sit at the heart of New Labour's plans for social inclusion but how does the government view "children" is it reflecting public opinion, or leading it? How does New Labour perceive "child welfare"? What are the motivations behind, and objectives of, current social policy for children? Are the "Rights of the Child" being subsumed under "duties and responsibilities"? This revisionist account provides critical answers to these questions within a historical framework and from a child-centred perspective. The book not only offers a provocative account of contemporary policies and the ideological thrust behind them, but also provides an informed historical perspective on the evolution of child welfare during the last century. "Child Welfare": offers a comprehensive interpretation of twentieth-century social policy for children; examines contemporary policies within a historical context; uses the concept of "ageism" as an explanatory device; and relates concepts of childhood to policy formation and implementation. This book will be invaluable reading for social policy and social work students, academics, social workers, and policy makers.
