The first collection of essays to focus on Deleuze and Guattari’s writing on childrenThis collection applies the characterisations of children and childhood made in Deleuze and Guattari‘s work to concerns that have shaped our idea of the child. Bringing together established and new voices, the authors cover philosophy, literature, religious studies, education, sociology and film studies.These essays question the popular idea that children are innocent adults-in-the-making. They consider aspects of children's lives such as time, language, gender, affect, religion, atmosphere and schooling. As a whole, this book critically interrogates the pervasive interest in the teleology of upward growth of the child.Key FeaturesRethinks traditional approaches to children and childhood, recognising their consequences for the materialist child and adult–child relationsApproaches the figurations of children and childhood in discourses such as cultural studies, queer studies, language studies, education, sociology, psychoanalysis, religion, and economics through the lens of Deleuze and GuattariApplies new approaches to children through Deleuze and Guattari, gaining awareness about our default attitudes and assumptions about children and childhoodContributorsMarkus P.J.
