Product details
The first line of responsibility for children lies with their parents, but what if the parents fail to look after their children? Who else is involved, and what should they do? Children in the Inteational Political Economy examines the moral responsibilities of different individuals and agencies towards children and argues that some responsibilities should be codified as concrete legal duties. If all else fails, children must look to the inteational community for help. Thus inteational agencies should recognize specific obligations to look after the well-being of children around the world.
