Childhood and Human Value Book

For millennia, children have been valued as possessions - valued by their parents as 'my' child and valued by communities and cultures as 'belonging' to them. Recently, a new way of valuing children has emerged - valuing them as people in possession of themselves, as people who have 'rights'. Will rights erode love between parents and children? Will they separate children from their communities and cultures? Examining a number of Twentieth Century developmental thinkers, Nick Lee argues that a more flexible and realistic understanding of the sources of human value is available to us. This alternative account is based on 'separability', and "Childhood and Human Value" advances the important claim that understanding adult-child relations through separability can resolve the tension between love and rights.Read More
