Beskrivning

If children’s rights are integral aspects of commonly accepted universal human rights of the late twentieth century, then why are the United States and other countries unsuccessful in guaranteeing all children their rights? This book seeks to explain how children’s rights originated, what they are, and what steps can be taken to implement them as our world moves into the twenty-first century.
