As a result of the advances in technology and media as well as the effects of globalization, the transmission of social and cultural practices from parents to children is changing. Based on a number of qualitative studies, this book offers insights into the lives of children and youth in Britain, Japan, Spain, Israel/Palestine, and Pakistan. Attention is focused on the child’s perspective within the social-power dynamics involved in adult–child relations, which reveals the dilemmas of policy, planning and parenting in a changing world UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9780857453266 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9780857453266 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9780857453266/original ER -
