Disadvantaged Childhoods and Humanitarian Intervention

Processes of Affective Commodification and Objectification

Produktform: Buch / Einband - fest (Hardcover)

This book explores how humanitarian interventions for children in difficult circumstances engage in affective commodification of disadvantaged childhoods.
