--CALL FOR PAPERS-- Children & Society Special Issue Asylum seeking and refugee children: local and global perspectives The editors of Children & Society are planning a Special Issue in Spring 2007 on the theme of displacement and asylum. The guest editors for this Special Issue will include Jason Hart and Jo Boyden. We encourage the submission of proposals from various disciplinary perspectives that include, but are not limited to, Anthropology, Sociology, Human Geography, Social Policy and Social Work, Educational Studies, Social Psychology, and Development Studies. Our aim is to produce a collection of essays that between them cover a wide age range; embrace experience in the global South as well as the UK and Europe; address both policy and practice; and offer critical reflection of a more theoretical nature. Deadline for submission of proposals (max 500 words): 31st May 2006 Deadline for final papers (max 6000 words): December 15th 2006 All enquiries and proposals to Jason Hart ([log in to unmask]) and Jo Boyden ([log in to unmask]) Thank you ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Note: The material contained in this communication comes to you from the Forced Migration Discussion List which is moderated by the Refugee Studies Centre (RSC), University of Oxford.
