Studies in Childhood and Youth

Series editors Penny Curtis University of Sheffield Sheffield, UK Spyros Spyrou European University Cyprus Nicosia, Cyprus Nigel Thomas Department of Social Work University of Central Lancashire Preston, UK Afua Twum-Danso Imoh Department of Sociological Studies University of Sheffield, UK

This well-established series embraces global and multi disciplinary scholarship on childhood and youth as social, historical, cultural and material phenomena. With the rapid expansion of childhood and youth studies in recent decades, the series encourages diverse and emerging theoretical and methodological approaches. We welcome proposals which explore the diversities and complexities of children’s and young people’s lives and which address gaps in the current literature relating to childhoods and youth in space, place and time. Studies in Childhood and Youth will be of interest to students and scholars in a range of areas, including Childhood Studies, Youth Studies, Sociology, Anthropology, Geography, Politics, Psychology, Education, Health, Social Work and Social Policy.
