Child Law

Mehr zum Buch

The book explores the fundamental question of "Who is the Child?" and critiques the legal frameworks surrounding children's rights, highlighting a disconnect between the stated priority of children's interests and the reality where adult interests often prevail. It emphasizes the limitations imposed by age restrictions in laws, which neglect current scientific findings on health impacts affecting children and beyond. The author examines various inadequacies in legal protections across multiple contexts, including public health, child labor, conflict, and the plight of illegal migrants and imprisoned children.
