Young People’s Views of and Responses to Socioeconomic Inequality
To date, sociological research has rarely foregrounded young people’s views of the causes of socioeconomic inequality, either for interpreting their understanding of the underlying processes involved or for exploring how these may influence the choices that help shape their own future socioeconomic outcomes. To address this gap, this paper uses questionnaire and interview data from 77 UK secondary school students concerning the relationships betw…
English secondary school students’ views of socioeconomic inequality and their sense of agency about their occupational aspirations
Despite the increasing attention paid to young people’s experiences of inequality, there is little research on whether and how their own views concerning its causes shape their choices and actions and, consequently, their future socioeconomic status. Using data from 77 online questionnaires and 62 online interviews with English secondary school students, this paper discusses the results of a study concerned with the relationships between students…
Towards a model for analysing adolescents' reflexivity
Reflexivity has received relatively little analytic attention in discussions of younger adolescents' agency. Using interview data from a sample of South Korean adolescents, this paper explores whether and how they manifested reflexivity concerning the impacts of socioeconomic inequality on their own occupational prospects. Through combining and adapting existing theorisations, it proposes a heuristic model for analysing adolescents' reflexivity b…

Socioeconomic inequality and adjustments in children’s perceptions of their agency as they age in South Korea
This paper explores how children's perceptions of their agency, as something that is closely associated with its exercise, appear in relation to social structural factors, especially their socioeconomic positions, as they age. Using data from 862 10–18 years old in South Korea, we examine how children's expressed optimism about their ability to achieve their occupational choices can conceal the impact of structural factors on their ‘choices’ and …
‘It’s Not Something I Can Change…’
Despite the increasing recognition of the significance of children’s own perceptions of inequality and critical theorisations of, and much research on, the impact of inequality on human agency, there is a lack of empirical evidence on the impact of inequality on children’s agency. This paper contributes to addressing this gap by exploring how children’s perceptions of inequality impinge upon their perceptions of the efficacy of their agency with …
Rural children’s work and school education in the context of rapid economic growth in South Korea
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore how children’s work, defined in a broad sense, and the related values and attitudes concerning childhood have evolved in the context of rapid economic growth in South Korea. It discusses how ideas about children’s activities and their status and relationships within the family have changed and how children’s roles and responsibilities are seen by members of different generations. It interrogates the…
Participation or pedagogy? Ambiguities and tensions surrounding the facilitation of children as researchers
Ambiguities and tensions can arise when children are facilitated to act as 'primary researchers' concerning whether this is primarily to support their 'participation' in knowledge production and, with the knowledge produced, in relevant decision-making processes or whether it is mainly for any educational benefits. This article considers these ambiguities and tensions theoretically and by using evidence from a study where English primary school c…
Why Research ‘by’ Children? Rethinking the Assumptions Underlying the Facilitation of Children as Researchers
Research ‘by’ children, where children conduct research as primary investigators, may be seen as an ideal form of children's participation in research. This paper examines the methodological and normative assumptions that underlie such research and identifies some ambiguities which require clarification and questions which need answering for better theorisations of its purposes and more robust evaluations of the associated research practices to o…
