توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب :
این کتاب راهنما سهم عمدهای در رشد تحقیقات بینالمللی و علاقه سیاستگذاری به رفاه تجربه شده یا کیفیت زندگی کودکان در دوران کودکی دارد و آن را به تحقیقات مداوم در مورد خطر و آسیبپذیری کودکان مرتبط میکند. ویراستاران و مشارکتکنندگان علاوه بر «آسیبپذیری»، مفهوم گستردهتر «ریسک» را نیز اتخاذ میکنند. کار زیادی ارتباط بین خطراتی که کودکان تجربه می کنند و کیفیت زندگی آنها را در نظر نمی گیرد. در بررسی کیفیت زندگی کودکان، فصلها به موضوعات مختلفی از خطر و آسیبپذیری میپردازند که ممکن است بر زندگی آنها تأثیر بگذارد و همچنین چگونه کیفیت دوران کودکی ممکن است حتی در مواجهه با این عوامل افزایش یافته و حفظ شود. فصل ها تجربیات خشونت و سوء استفاده را مورد بحث قرار می دهند. دسترسی به خدمات اساسی مانند مسکن، بهداشت و آموزش؛ و آسیب پذیری کودکان به دلیل عوامل خارجی گسترده تر مانند جنگ، درگیری و رویدادهای محیطی. این جلد همچنین شامل تأثیرات فناوریهای جدید بر روی کودکان و خطرات و آسیبپذیریهای متعاقب آن، در کنار فواید است.این جلد مهم طیف متنوعی را گرد هم میآورد. دیدگاه های متخصصان تثبیت شده و دانشمندان نوظهور در این زمینه های کاری. طیف وسیعی از زمینههای جغرافیایی و فرهنگی را پوشش میدهد و شامل مشارکتهای نظری، تجربی، سیاستگذاری و عملی است. این کتاب راهنما اولین نقطه مرجع طبیعی برای دانشگاهیان و متخصصان سیاست گذاری علاقه مند به کیفیت زندگی، رفاه و حقوق کودکان است.

توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب به زبان اصلی :
This handbook makes a major contribution to the growing international research and policy interest in children’s experienced well-being or quality of life in childhood, linking it to ongoing research on children’s risk and vulnerability. The editors and contributors adopt the broader concept of ‘risk’ in addition to ‘vulnerability’. Not much work considers the connections between risks that children experience and their quality of life. In examining children’s quality of life, the chapters discuss various issues of risk and vulnerability that may affect their lives and also how the quality of childhood might be enhanced and maintained even in the face of these factors. The chapters discuss experiences of violence and abuse; access to basic services such as housing, health and education; and children’s vulnerability due to broader external factors such as war, conflict, and environmental events. The volume also includes the impacts of new technologies on children and the consequent risks and vulnerabilities they may face, alongside the benefits.This important volume brings together a diverse range of perspectives from established experts and emerging scholars in these fields of work. It covers a wide range of geographical and cultural contexts, and includes theoretical, empirical, policy and practice-based contributions. This handbook is a natural first point of reference for academics and policy professionals interested in quality of life, well-being, and children's rights.
