Browse monographs and edited collections with a focus on Childhood and Youth from across the social sciences, brought together here in some of our most timely and relevant series.
Critical Cultural Studies of Childhood
This series focuses on reframings of theory, research, policy, and pedagogies in childhood. A critical cultural study of childhood is one that offers a 'prism' of possibilities for writing about power and its relationship to the cultural constructions of childhood, family, and education in broad societal, local, and global contexts. Books in the series open up new spaces for dialogue and reconceptualization based on critical theoretical and methodological framings, including critical pedagogy; advocacy and social justice perspectives; cultural, historical, and comparative studies of childhood; and post-structural, postcolonial, and/or feminist studies of childhood, family, and education.
Palgrave Studies on the Anthropology of Childhood and Youth
The goal of the series is to advance an emerging sub-field in anthropology that treats childhood and adolescence as distinct and worthy foci of scholarship. The series aims to break down historic barriers that have prevented collaboration among cultural/social anthropologists, ethnologists, archaeologists, linguists, primatologists, biological anthropologists and developmental psychologists.
