Publisher's Synopsis

Bringing together new, multidisciplinary research, this book explores how children and young people across Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas experience and cope with situations of poverty and precarity. It looks at the impact of neoliberalism, austerity and global economic crisis, evidencing the multiple harms and inequalities caused. It also examines the different ways that children, young people and families 'get by' under these challenging circumstances, showing how they care for one another and envisage more hopeful socio-political futures.
