Childhood and Children's Rights between Research and Activism ::Honouring the Work of Manfred Liebel /
No full textSubjective human rights of children are reasonably fathomed cooperatively by practice, activism and research. Approaches in interdisciplinary learning and teaching in childhood and children's rights are demonstrated as possibilities for social change through acquiring competencies to think and act children's rights. This book is dedicated to Manfred Liebel and focuses on his life's work. He has, throughout his life and work, combined social scientific childhood theories and children's rights discourses with practical, topical examples of protagonism and agency of children and young people in different national and international contexts. Contents Theories of childhood Children's rights discourses Agency, protagonism, political activism Researching and teaching Conceptualisations and approaches to children's rights and childhood Target Groups Lecturers and students of children's rights, pedagogy, sociology, political sciences, law and international development Decision makers and human rights activists in politics, NGOs The Editors Rebecca Budde - academic coordinator of the MA Childhood Studies and Children's Rights at University of Applied Sciences, Potsdam. Urszula Markowska-Manista - field researcher in education and childhood studies, director of M.A. Childhood Studies and Children's Rights at University of Applied Sciences, Potsdam; assistant Professor at University of Warsaw. Research interests: rights, childhood and education of children in fragile contexts in culturally diverse environments
Kinderarbeit auf Kosten der Kindheit – oder: Wege zu anderer Kindheit?
Get PDFWenn Kinder ein „Recht zu arbeiten“ für sich beanspruchen, wie es seitens einiger Organisationen von arbeitenden Kindern in Afrika, Asien und Lateinamerika seit Jahren geschieht (vgl. Liebel 2001, S. 33ff.), ruft dies meist Verwunderung und Kopfschütteln hervor. Spätestens seit im Europa des 19. Jahrhunderts Regulative und Gesetze erlassen wurden, in denen die Erwerbsarbeit von Kindern verboten wurde, gehört es zum Grundverständnis westlichen Denkens, dass es das Beste für Kinder sei, nicht zu arbeiten und sich stattdessen der Schule zu widmen.Allerdings gab es auch in Europa immer wieder andere Stimmen. So erschien unter dem provozierenden Titel „Kinderarbeit ist gut“ vor nunmehr 23 Jahren ein Buch zweier norwegischer Pädagogen (Linge/Wille 1984), die das umstrittene Thema von einer ungewohnten Seite angehen. Sie zeigen an konkreten Beispielen, dass die Arbeit von Kindern auch gute Seiten haben und das Leben und Lernen von Kindern bereichern kann. Mit Blick auf ihr Land und die „lebensfernen“ Schulen und Kindergärten, in denen die beiden sich jahrelang abgemüht hatten, forderten sie: „Führt Kinderarbeit wieder ein!“Im folgenden Beitrag gehe ich einigen Kontroversen über die Auswirkungen der Kinderarbeit auf Kinder nach und diskutiere verschiedene Handlungsansätze, die darauf abzielen, die Situation arbeitender Kinder zu verbessern. Mit Blick auf die Forderung Kindern ein Recht zu arbeiten einzuräumen, setze ich mich mit der Befürchtung auseinander, die Kinder würden schutzlos ausbeuterischen Praktiken ausgeliefert und skizziere schließlich einige Gedanken über sich abzeichnende neue Praxisformen von Kindheit und mögliche Konsequenzen für pädagogisches Handeln in der Schule.„Wer wie wir heute in der fatalen Situation steht, infolge des bedingten Zweifel[s] bereits an der Möglichkeit der Wahrheit, die auch wieder geradezu die Voraussetzung unseres gewohnten verständigen/ verstandesgemäßen Gebrauchs der Wörter und Begriffe ist, nach Mitteln zu fahnden, um die Grenzen des Verstandes Überschreiten zu können, greift nach jedem Strohhalm. Und das Wort 'Widerstreit' schien mir für die Sachlage passend zu sein, da es genau in diesem Sinn als ein 'Kind' dieser Sprachnot verstanden werden kann.” (Ansgar Häußling in einem Brief an Gerold Scholz vom 1.2.2002
Child Work and Child Labour in Italy: The Point of View of the Children
No full textNot much attention was dedicated to the problem of child labour in Italy until the Nineties, probably because child labour was a marginal phenomenon and had almost disappeared following promulgation in 1967 of a law that prohibited any type of work until school leaving age had been reached ( or until fourteen years of age) and the introduction of sanctions to protect children’s rights to health and education.
Since the end of the Nineties attention to the subject has progressively grown and, partially through studies and research projects, greater understanding of the problem has been promoted – but the extreme difficulty of investigating the phenomenon has also emerged quite markedly, along with the general confusion about the subject and the fragmentary results of research.
As a demonstration of this, it should suffice to analyse the estimates made by scholars, research institutes, institutions and labour unions in recent years, which differ from each other by hundreds of thousands of units, with oscillations between 50 thousand and 500 thousand working minors. Although there is still open debate on child work today in Italy, it is possible to outline some recurrent characteristics that contribute to defining the phenomenon in Italy from the various research projects that have been conducted, especially those conducted in specific territorial contexts that are of a qualitative nature, as well as the only investigation conducted on the national level on a representative sample of the population, commissioned by the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy from ISTAT (Italian National Statistical Institute), which was published in 2002.
Not all research projects took into consideration the point of view of children in the objectives pursued but almost two research projects take children’s point of view into consideration, from which some useful information may be gleaned: the ISTAT research, and a qualitative research performed by the author (Tagliaventi M.T., Lavoro minorile e percorsi formativi in una società industriale avanzata, Morlacchi editore, Perugia, 2002).
These researches, albeit with all due caution in dealing with a problem-fraught phenomenon such as child work, underline that what children think of their work differs a great deal from what many adults think, who are responsible for their education, especially educators, teachers, pedagogues and the parents of minors who do not work, who generally demand that minors under fifteen years of age be removed from actual working situations. But if adults do not consider or ask themselves why working activities not only are requested by children but also judged as quite positive experiences, they will not be able to look at premature work in the right way or to provide alternatives to these satisfying activities. All of this obviously forces to reconsider the conceptual paradigms on childhood and calls upon all the agencies concerning the socialization of children
Love in the First Degree: Manfred, Byron, and Incest
No full textThis is the author accepted manuscript. The final version is freely available from the University of Colorado via the link in this recordNote that the text of the manuscript varies considerably from the final published versionThis essay suggests that Byron’s Manfred contains not an expression of Byron’s guilt about his incest with his half-sister Augusta Leigh, as previous critics have suggested, but rather considerable evidence of his lack of guilt. It argues that the play displays incest and torment, but in fact does not link the two, instead displaying Manfred’s love for Astarte as deeply felt without regrets. The essay then argues that one finds the same combination of deep love and lack of regret in Byron’s remarks about his relationship with his half-sister, as well as in the representations of incest in his other works. It suggests that this acceptance of incest links to Byron’s commitment to rational thinking and personal freedom, and it invites future criticism to explore this connection in more detail
Children’s cities. From pedagogical mise en scène to the appropiation of the city
Get PDF[ES] El autor presenta algunos proyectos socioeducativos basados en la participación y el autogobierno de los niños bajo el nombre de “ciudad de los niños”, que se practican en varios países europeos desde los años ochenta. El autor analiza los proyectos desde el punto de vista de la medida en que promueven la ciudadanía activa de los niños y contribuyen a la transformación de estructuras audultocéntricas y excluyentes en beneficio de los niños y niñas. [EN] The author presents some socio-educational projects based on children’s par-ticipation and self-governance under the name “children’s city”, which have been practised in several European countries since the 1980s. The author analyses the projects from the point of view of the extent to which they promote children’s active citizenship and contribute to the transformation of adultist and exclusionary and adult-centred structures of the cities in the children’s best interests
Niñas y niños investigadores en América Latina. Cuestionando la investigación académica
Get PDFManfred Liebel y Marta Martínez MuñozResumenLa investigación de la infancia, incluso cuando se concibe como investigación participativa, se mueve dentro de un corsé académico en el que el poder está desigualmente distribuido y los intereses y perspectivas de los niños sólo se expresan de forma limitada. Los adultos investigadores que quieren hacer justicia a estos intereses y perspectivas tienen que asumir el riesgo de no sólo entender a los niños como parte de un proyecto de investigación predefinido, sino de reconocerlos como investigadores por derecho propio y, si es necesario, apoyarlos en ello. En este ensayo se analizan las dificultades y desafíos que ello implica y se dan ejemplos de las oportunidades especiales de conocimiento que ofrece la investigación dirigida por niños y las formas en que éstos pueden beneficiarse de ella.Palabras claveInvestigación de la infancia; investigación participativa; adultos como co-investigadores; investigación dirigida por niños; beneficios para niños ResumoA investigação infantil, mesmo quando concebida como investigação participativa, move-se dentro de um espartilho académico em que o poder é distribuído de forma desigual e os interesses e perspectivas das crianças só são expressos de forma limitada.

Researching adults who want to do justice to these interests and perspectives have to take the risk of not only understanding children as part of a predefined research project, but of recognizing them as researchers in their own right and, if necessary, supporting them in this. The paper discusses the difficulties and challenges involved and gives examples of the special knowledge opportunities offered by child-led research and the ways in which children can benefit from it.KeywordsChildhood research; participatory research; adults as co-researchers; child-led research; benefits to children La investigación de la infancia, incluso cuando se concibe como investigación participativa, se mueve dentro de un corsé académico en el que el poder está desigualmente distribuido y los intereses y perspectivas de los niños sólo se expresan de forma limitada.
