Sobre IBD

This volume explores how dichotomies between nature/culture, rural/urban, and child/adult have structured our understanding of the place of children and nature in the city. The book illustrates how children’s relations to and with nature can change adultist perspectives and help create more ecologically and socially just cities. It engages debates in political ecology and urban theory which have not treated age as an important axis of difference. The book asks how we can subvert both romanticized and modernist conceptualizations of nature and childhood that conflate innocence and purity with children and nature, and what happens when we re-invent urban natures with children’s needs in mind.
