Childhoods and children’s rights beyond postcolonial paternalism
Childhoods and children’s rights beyond postcolonial paternalism
The epilogue summarizes the manifestations of postcolonial paternalism towards children and a particular use of children's rights. It shows how an anti-paternalist child rights policy can contribute to overcoming this paternalism and illustrates this with the example of a local group of the African Movement of Working Children and Youth in Senegal.
