 | Global Perspectives on Rural Childhood and Youth: Young Rural Lives Subjects: Education; Geography; Social Sciences; Childhood; Human Geography; Anthropology - Soc Sci; Sociology & Social Policy; Rural Studies; Childhood - Anthropology; Sociology of Culture; This collection of international research and collaborative theoretical innovation examines the socio-cultural contexts and negotiations that young people face when growing up in rural settings across the world. This book is strikingly different to a standard edited book of loosely linked, but basically independent, chapters. In this case, the book presents both thematically organised case studies and co-authored commentaries that integrate and advance current understandings and debates about rural childhood and youth.
