商品描述

This second edition of the handbook gives a new scientific perspective to youth and childhood studies as multi scientific and interdisciplinary subjects which as such have not yet found their own framing in a particular discipline. It provides theoretical and methodological key debates and issues that develop and add an understanding of childhood and youth research discipline from a broader perspective. The Handbook on Children and Youth Studies draws on current thinking, but also challenges theoretical and conceptual orthodoxies in the field, drawing on interdisciplinary thinking and critical perspectives. It focuses on childhood and youth to address the emerging consensus that the boundaries between childhood, youth and adulthood are blurred. The view that defining youth and childhood largely in terms of problem topics is out dated. Instead, the handbook focuses on 16 themes that are open to international perspectives and to different conceptual approaches. Each theme is edited by a pair of field editors, thereby capturing a plurality of views. The 16 themes as a starting point are globally timely and they need scientific debates on the boundaries between childhoods, youth and adulthood. This handbook will meet the needs of childhood and youth researchers and the academics in the field. It recognizes the changing social context of the lives of children and young people, while developing theoretical frameworks and discussing about the core substantive issues of Children and Youth Studies.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本手冊的第二版為青少年與兒童研究提供了一種新的科學視角，將其視為多科學和跨學科的主題，這些主題尚未在特定學科中找到自己的框架。它提供了理論和方法論的關鍵辯論與議題，從更廣泛的視角發展並增進對兒童與青少年研究學科的理解。《兒童與青少年研究手冊》基於當前的思考，但也挑戰該領域的理論和概念正統觀點，並借鑒跨學科的思維和批判性視角。該手冊專注於兒童與青少年，旨在應對日益形成的共識，即兒童、青少年與成年之間的界限變得模糊。將青少年和兒童的定義主要基於問題主題的觀點已經過時。相反，手冊專注於16個主題，這些主題對國際視角和不同的概念方法持開放態度。每個主題由一對領域編輯負責編輯，從而捕捉多元的觀點。這16個主題作為起點在全球範圍內具有時效性，並需要對兒童、青少年與成年之間的界限進行科學辯論。本手冊將滿足兒童與青少年研究者及該領域學者的需求。它認識到兒童和年輕人生活的社會背景正在變化，同時發展理論框架並討論兒童與青少年研究的核心實質性議題。
