About this book

This volume examines children's and young people's emotions in policy-making and professional practice. It seeks both to inform readers about up-to-date research and to provoke debate, encouraging and enabling critical reflections upon emotions in policy and practice, relevant to readers' own context.

Reviews

“Children’s Emotions in Policy and Practice is a timely contribution to children’s geography … Empirical materials from various childhood spaces, and a range of places, make this edited collection an interesting, and potentially useful, resource. … this book is not only a contribution to the children’s geography space, but may also be of interest to researchers in social and cultural geography more broadly, as well as other areas in the social sciences … .” (Leanne Higham, Children’s Geographies, Vol. 15 (5), 2017)
