This book makes significant original contributions to numerous intersecting fields. Though the scholarly community surrounding the study of Palestinian children, youth, and families may seem small, topics covered in this book address wider scholarly publics, including scholars in childhood and family studies, gender and women’s studies, children’s geographies, social movement studies, peace and conflict studies, and, of course, Palestine studies more broadly."" - Sandy Marshall, a human geographer who works with migrant and refugee children and youth on issues related to conflict and humanitarian aid. ""A very interesting and contemporary edited volume, which brings some new voices and insights into the field of childhood studies in general, and to the study of children’s agency and resistance in particular. In the last couple of years there is a growing scholarly interest in theorizing the life of Palestinian children, and the war in Gaza means that this is more important than ever. This volume is a welcome and much needed contribution to this field."" - Noam Peleg (author of The Child's Right to Development)
