Beskrivning

In this insightful book, Tara M. Collins uses critical analysis and practical examples to illustrate the essential connection between children’s rights and professional practices. Collins identifies key conceptual considerations to inform and guide a pattern of professional work that respects children, youth and their families.Children’s Rights in Professional Practices with Children and Youth emphasises the importance of understanding, reflecting upon, respecting and implementing children’s rights in the context of relational practices involving young people. Adopting an international perspective, it addresses the predominance of legalism in children’s rights which hinders understanding and respect by professionals. It explores the ways in which a relational children’s rights-based praxis can inform professional practices.Multidisciplinary in scope, this book is crucial reading for academics, researchers and students of law and other professional disciplines with an interest in human rights. Varied professionals and policymakers at local, regional, national and international levels will also benefit from this fundamental resource due to its practical application.

Recensioner i media

‘This accessible, well-argued book impressed me, as a reader whose working life has majored on developing, championing and promoting human rights, particularly of children and young people. This book would be invaluable in initial and continued professional training and development. Highly recommended, and will bear more than one reading.’
