About the Book

The twin issues of child labour and children`s rights to education have become a matter of international concern while gaining prominence in national developmental efforts. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, which has a higher rate of ratification by the nations of the world than any other UN convention, signals a new global awareness of the importance of this problem. This valuable book brings together a range of perspectives concerning the causes of and solutions to the problem of child labour in South Asia. This thought-provoking volume discusses a range of pertinent questions including: - what is the nature of the conflict between the right of the child to education and the economic needs of the family and which of these concerns should take priority? - what is the role of the state in this `needs versus rights`conflict? - what roles are played by social discrimination (on the basis of caste and gender) and cultural exclusion (tribal and religious status) in keeping children both out of school and out of work? - what is the status of child labour in the context of globalisation and international trade agreements? - what is the meaning and experience of childhood in the region, particularly among poorer families?Table of ContentsPreface and AcknowledgementsI.
