About

Children's Rights Synopsis

Originally published in 1981, this book provides a detailed account of the emergence of the children’s rights movement, and analyses the concept of a right. It considers the justifications which may be sought when rights are claimed. Particular attention is given to the problem which arises when different rights are seen to be in conflict with each other or with other kinds of moral consideration.

These arguments are then examined with regard to such special features of children as their incomplete but developing rationality and their material dependence on adults.
