Crisis for Whom?: Critical Global Perspectives on Childhood, Care, and Migration

Crisis for Whom?: Critical Global Perspectives on Childhood, Care, and Migration - Rachel Rosen

Crisis for Whom?: Critical Global Perspectives on Childhood, Care, and Migration


A complex and nuanced interdisciplinary exploration of children in migration crises.

Children are central figures in narratives of "migration crises." They are often depicted as either essentially vulnerable and in need of special protections, or suspiciously adult-like and a threat to national borders. This bilingual book, written in English and Spanish, challenges these simplistic narratives. Drawing on collaborations between young migrants, researchers, artists, and activists, this collection asks new questions about how crises are produced, mobility is controlled, and childhood is conceptualized. Answers to these questions have profound implications for resources, infrastructures, and relationships of care. The chapters offer insights from diverse global contexts, painting a rich and insightful tapestry about child migration. They stress that children are more than recipients of care and that the crises they face are multiple and stratifying, with long historical roots. Readers are invited to understand migration as an act of concern and love and to attend to how the solidarities between citizens and "others," adults and children, and between children, are understood and forged.
