Children's diverse experiences during periods of conflict, post-conflict and peacetime reveal that their roles in society and political communities are complex. Based on this premise, this book suggests that understanding children's roles involves a critical analysis of where the child is situated within her/his family, within socio-political networks and within the state.

It reflects how the development of international and national discourses on children's rights and protection is relevant to children's everyday lives in situations of conflict.
