Table of contents:
To understand how society works, we must take account of children as well as adults, otherwise our explanation omits an important social group. Children's lives are shaped by policies and practices, but they are also agents, who make a life for themselves through their relationships with adults and other children. This book argues that we should start from the children's own accounts to show how the organisation of social relations provides an explanation for their social position.
