Family display, family type, or community? Limitations in the application of a concept
In this paper we develop the concept of family display by responding to David Morgan’s suggestion that researchers should consider whether ‘family displays’ are used to convey a ‘type’ of Family. We do so by applying the concept to the accounts of migrant family children living in an English city, and those of adults that grew-up in Mennonite communities in Mexico and Canada. Analysis uniquely shows that migrant family children do display a type …
Childhood
What is now known as the “new paradigm” of the sociology of childhood grew out of a rejection of traditional sociological and developmental psychological theories of childhood. Children in earlier sociological accounts were subsumed into accounts of the family, or the school – in other words into the major sites of socialization.

Towards a sociology of 10-12 year olds? Emerging methodological issues in the 'new' social studies of childhood
This article reports on an analysis of 320 empirical research articles published between 1993 and 2010 in three of the leading 'childhood' journals.

The first part of this article outlines why a consideration of the ages used in childhood research is worthy of investigation. This addresses tech…

Family Law and the Construction of Childhood in England and Wales
Listening to the voices of children has become somewhat of a mantra within the current politics of English childhood following the signing of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1990 and the implementation of the Children Act 1989. However, although the Convention establishes children's rights to be heard and the Act makes specific provisions for ensuring that children have a proper say in matters concerning their own welfare, it is c…
The Politics of Childhood
This book analyzes the nature and experience of childhoods around the world at the beginning of the 21st century. Wide-ranging developments concerning children in the fields of social policy, sociolog
