Despite the increasing volume of scholarship that shows children as political actors, prior to this book, a cohesive framework was lacking that would more fully examine and express children’s relationship with political power. Rather than simply hitching children’s resistance to standard theories of resistance, Heidi Morrison seeks to meet children on their own terms. Through the case study of Palestinian children, contributors theorize children’s resistance as an embodied experience called lived resistance. A critical aspect of the study of lived resistance is not just documenting what children do but specifically how scholars approach the topic of children’s resistance. With Lived Resistance against the War on Palestinian Children, the authors account for the vessel (i.e., the body in flesh and mind) through which such resistance generates and operates. The diverse group of chapter authors examine Palestinian children’s art and media, imprisonment, parenting experiences, bereavement, neoliberalism, refugee camps, and protest movements as aspects of their collective and individual political power. Through these outlets, the book shows consistencies and contends that these children’s relationship to political power operates from an inclusive model of citizenship and is social justice oriented, symbolically oriented, and contingently based.

People experience childhood differently depending on the time and place. The history of childhood explores different ways that childhood is socially constructed, as well as tells the story of the past from the perspective of the young. Telling history from the bottom up changes the way we think about concepts like time, emotions, political power, age, and progress.Morrison traces the evolution of this field, introduces key concepts, methods, and debates, summarizes key themes, and discusses future challenges. The book explains and comments upon the field to readers who have some interest in, but little grounding in, the history of childhood. The coverage seeks to be as global as possible to indicate the growing reach of the flourishing field in the English-speaking world.Since its inception in the 1960s, the history of childhood has become a permanent and vibrant fixture in academic course offerings, book series, journals, and associations worldwide. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in any aspect of the world because children are everywhere, in politics, economics, society, culture, psychology, religion, and law. The future of the world is intricately linked to the history of its children.
