Reviews
Globalization of Childhood is a progressive, valuable book in the field. It is best suited for graduate students, scholars and legal scholars, and those generally interested in issues related to global death penalty issues. --CHOICE Linde offers a book addressing the complexities of the norms and laws against the execution of children under 18 for heinous crimes. It examines how children unknowingly played an important role in the creation of the liberal state. Linde examines the impact of activism on the debate, particularly considering England (1933) and France (1906). It is clear through this discussion that norms and laws shaped the abolition of the death penalty in England and France in the 19th century. Linde continues in the middle chapters of the book with case studies in four former coloniesAlgeria, Kenya, Tanzania, and Tunisiaand shows how activism and coercive socialization impacted the narrative. The book closes by explaining that social change is the true catalyst for the evolution and abolition of the death penalty for child offenders. --A. R. S. Lorenz, Ramapo College <p/>
