Produktbeschreibung
Discussions on children who have experienced domestic abuse often focuses on trauma and risks, and little is known about their lives beyond abuse. This risks pathologising children and reinforcing colonial and patriarchal social norms. This groundbreaking book challenges dominant narratives by drawing on an 18-month multimodal ethnography with children in an inner London borough. Offering a radical and holistic perspective on children's personhood, this book situates their everyday lives within broader global debates on childhood, decolonisation and social justice. It engages with the works of Black feminist, decolonial and Indigenous scholars, calling for a fundamental rethinking of how we support and understand children who have experienced domestic abuse.
