{"product_id":"perspectives-in-child-care-policy-lorraine-fox-harding-9780582276840","title":"Perspectives in Child Care Policy","description":"Child care law and policy issues generate very strong emotions and some crucial questions concerning the role of the state. For instance, under what circumstances should the state be able to intervene and use the force of the law to protect children? Do children have similar rights to adults? Such questions are matters of controversial debate and, in the light of well publicised child abuse cases, official inquiries and a government review led to the passing of the Children Act in 1989. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003ePerspectives in Child Care Policy\u003c\/i\u003e presents four different value perspectives on child care policy - laissez-faire; state paternalism; defence of the birth family and children's rights. These perspectives differ in their underlying values, concepts and assumptions concerning children, families, the rights and powers of parents and the role of the state. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lorraine Fox Harding\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0582276845\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780582276840\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/25\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.47d","brand":"Lorraine Fox Harding","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059339358463,"sku":"9780582276840","price":69.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ba9b88fb-3b22-46d9-90b9-f0b4a2100036.jpg?v=1685057631","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/perspectives-in-child-care-policy-lorraine-fox-harding-9780582276840","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
