"At a time when children's issues are playing an increasingly important role in the policy agendas of many states, this timely textbook provides an accessible introduction to key areas relating to children and law at both a global and a regional level. Assuming no prior knowledge, the author introduces the reader to key concepts such as 'childhood' and the sources and institutions of international law before critically examining other central issues."
