As part of a re-examination of our societal values and obligations, this book focuses on illuminating the various meanings and issues of entitlement in relation to the basic needs of children in our society. Drawing on the perspectives of philosophy, law, education, sociology, child development, economics, and public health, the authors discuss the implications of their vision of entitlement for the well-being of America's children. The book also points out specific family and cultural contexts for the provision of entitlements for young children. And, finally, it turns our attention to the moral commitments needed to effect changes in policies and programs. In this way, the book provides valuable information for all who are trying to improve the nurture and education of America's children.

In her provocative new book, Stacie Goffin presents a leadership manifesto for the field of early care and education. With an action-oriented frame of reference, she offers a unique point of view on efforts to improve programme quality and developmental and learning outcomes for children.The book calls for the ECE field to step forward as agents for change by: (1) Assuming responsibility for the competent practice of its practitioners and for facilitating positive results for children and their learning. (2) Formally organising as a profession to realize consistency in practice across sites and program types. (3) Diminishing its reliance on public policy for defining its purpose and structure.The text concludes with “Next Steps Commentaries” written by education luminaires Rolf Grafwallner, Jacqueline Jones, and Pamela J. Winton outlining concrete steps for action that will jump-start a conversation about moving forward with the ideas presented in the book. ECE for a New Era builds on and extends the conversation started in Goffin’s critically acclaimed book co-authored with Valora Washington, Ready or Not: Leadership Choices in Early Care and Education.

This book examines the interactions of gender and race, developmental psychology, and public policy and how, collectively, they influenced the marginalization of early childhood caregivers’ and educators’ roles. In order to learn how their roles came to be both externally and internally marginalized—in public esteem, research attention, compensation, and valuation—Goffin traces the origins of the early childhood care and education field and its evolution over time. Also taken into account is the influence of the early childhood care and education field’s insufficient attention to practitioners’ emerging stature. Chapter by chapter, the book (Left Behind for short) calls attention to the historical influences of its racial and gender context, its long-standing reliance on developmental psychology, and its dependence on public policy, along with how, when intertwined, these influences led to the marginalization of early childhood caregivers and educators’ role, which helped shape early childhood care and education as a field of practice. This work is ideal for early childhood care and education’s undergraduate and graduate faculty, its undergraduate and graduate students, early childhood care and education policy advocates, those in state department administrative roles, those who self-identify as change agents, plus early childhood caregivers and educators who want to learn more about their history.
