The first collection of essays to focus on Deleuze's writing on children and childhood.This collection gives an accessible account of the key characterisations of children and childhood made in Deleuze and Guattari's work. These concepts are then applied to concerns that have shaped the child in various disciplines and in interdisciplinary scholarship.Bringing together established and new voices, the essays take up concepts from Deleuze and Guattari's work to question the popular idea that children are innocent adults-in-the-making caught in an Oedipal grid. Authors working in philosophy, literature, education, sociology, gender and sexuality, music and film studies consider aspects of children's lives such as time, language, affect, atmosphere, gender, sexuality and schooling, offering critical approaches to the pervasive interest in the teleology of upward growth of the child.Markus P.
