Child and Youth Care : Critical Perspectives on Pedagogy, Practice, and Policy Paperback / softback
Edited by Alan Pence, Jennifer White
Paperback / softback
Description
Critical and postmodern perspectives have been largely underexplored in the field of child and youth care.
This book addresses the gap, showcasing cutting-edge approaches to policy, pedagogy, and practice from diverse perspectives and professional settings. The authors of Child and Youth Care challenge deep-seated assumptions about child and youth care by reinterpreting core concepts such as ethics and outcomes and raising questions about underlying goals and premises.
Can the ends of practice be separated from the means?
For whose benefit are interventions designed? By recognizing a range of social and political influences on children and youth, this volume bears witness to exciting developments in child and youth care.
