Now fully revised and updated, this classic textbook is unique in its use of children's rights to evaluate law and policy affecting children across a broad range of areas in their lives. Comprehensive in scope, it features assessments of key topics including parenthood, education, child protection, child poverty and medical law.
The notion that children constitute an important group of rights holders has gained increasing acceptance both domestically and internationally. Nevertheless, this rhetorical commitment to children''s rights is not necessarily realised in practice. Now in its fourth edition, Fortin''s Children''s Rights and the Developing Law explores the extent to which law and policy in England promotes or undermines the rights of children. Fully revised and updated, this textbook uses current research on child development and welfare to reflect on the extent to which the law fulfils children''s rights in a wide range of areas, including medical law, education and child poverty. These developments are measured again the domestic law and the UK''s international obligations under, for example, the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
