The Politics of Child Protection: Contemporary Perspectives (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781647284954)

Child protection refers to the protection of children from abuse, violence, neglect and exploitation. This can also include protecting children from trafficking, commercial sexual exploitation, child labor and child marriage. Child protection permits children to have accessibility to other rights, such as development, participation, survival and growth. The field of child welfare and social work has been experiencing ever increasing crises and reforms. Serious harm or death of a child as a result of extreme neglect or abuse, is subjected to public protest, as well as intense media and political scrutiny. Such incidents are also utilized explicitly as vehicles of bringing major changes in the policy. This book outlines contemporary perspectives on the politics of child protection. It will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
