Global Studies of Childhood
A global childhoods research collective
We believe that researching global childhoods offers a comprehensive understanding of children’s lives, experiences, and challenges worldwide. We regard global childhoods as an interdisciplinary field which combines insights from humanities and social sciences (e.g. education, sociology, philosophy, cultural studies, anthropology, media studies, social work, law) and the sciences (e.g. health sciences, psychology, architecture, engineering, compu…

Civilising the Ex-Colonisers? Counter-Hegemonic Discourses at Workplaces in Maputo
This article follows the call in decolonial research to recognise other ways of knowing. It explores a specific kind of knowledge: namely, what we describe as ‘counterhegemonic civilising discourses’, or everyday efforts by the ex-colonised to civilise the ex-coloniser. In the article, we analyse Mozambican workers’ discursive attempts to teach what they see as ‘proper’ or ‘moral’ behaviour to Portuguese bosses and managers whom they meet at work…
Doing research in Indonesia and Sweden on the ambivalence of care and masculinity in Ecec; challenging dominant norms through ethnographic methodology
The aim of the article is to explore norms about care and masculinity in early childhood education and care settings in Indonesia and Sweden. Building on long-term ethnographic fieldwork, it is shown how care in the two nations was produced as ambivalent for men, causing a risk of being accused of working with children for the wrong reasons. Two different strategies were employed by the men to handle this: to avoid caring practices and to renegot…

Of routine consideration
Inspired initially by Elias’s (1994) work on ‘civilising processes’, this article draws on a project in which an English and a Swedish researcher examines ethnographic data on mealtimes from two of their respective studies undertaken in early childhood settings. Despite the differing contexts, the data show a marked similarity in the way children’s bodies become subject to ‘civilising’ during mealtimes. The article contends that mealtimes are tim…
A strong commitment
The focus of the present study is on how educators and students create a ‘sense of belonging’ and school identity. The ethnography was carried out at an independent Christian school with children and students aged six to sixteen years. This study’s aim is to contribute knowledge about how the identity of a school has become an important factor in the context of the marketisation of education. The identity of the school is articulated as a school …
