Will the future be a climate disaster? Will biotechnologies bring huge improvements to lifespan? Predictions vary, but children's status as human embodiments of the future puts them at the centre of attempts to shape the world and the discipline of childhood studies can therefore make a critical and creative contribution to future-making.

Nicholas Lee is Associate Professor of Childhood at Warwick University, UK. He has previously published Childhood and Human Value: Development, Separation and Separability and Childhood and Society: Growing Up in an Age of Uncertainty.
