Children's Lifeworlds: Gender, Welfare and Labour in the Developing World - Hardcover
Children's Lifeworlds examines how working children face the challenge of having to combine work with school in Kerala. Moving beyond the usual concern with child labour and welfare to a critical assessment of the daily work routine of children, this book questions how class and kinship, gender and household organization, state ideology and education influence and conceal the lives of children in developing countries. Presenting an extraordinarily sympathetic and detailed case study of boys' and girls' work routine in a south Indian village, this book shows children creating the visibility of their work. The combination of personal experience, quantitative data and in-depth anthropological methods, sheds light on the world of those who, though they hold the future, have been left in the dark.

About the Author:
Olga Nieuwenhuys is Senior Researcher at the Institute for Development Research, University of Amsterdam.
Review:
`The book gives an insight into the complexity of any society, however small or poor and the difficulty of forecasting the impact of development initiatives. ... It is a book about child work in a poor rural village, and as such the research is fascinating and valuable.' - Development in Practice May 1995
