Abstract

International Child Law examines and discusses the international legal framework and issues relating to children. This second edition has been substantially revised and includes new Chapters on: chidren and armed conflict; sexual exploitation; and Indigenous children's rights. The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child remains a central topic. It draws on a genuine range of disciplines and is a valuable resource for those in the course of study and research in this area.
