This book traces the history of New Zealand’s long journey towards the emergence of our children into full citizenship. It explores key aspects of the intense debate that gripped the nation, including the growing recognition of children rights, tensions within our laws, the impact of religious convictions, shifting public attitudes, the work of child advocacy, the influential role of the media, and the fascinating political story. The authors also look to the future and explore how we can build on the new law to benefit all children. This very readable publication, which has been sponsored by Save the Children New Zealand, is a case study in social change that will be of interest to the public, politicians, campaigners, child advocates and the media, as well as to academics and students from many disciplines.pdf: http://seap.savethechildren.se/en/South_East_Asia/Misc/Puffs/Unreasonabl...
