Description
Summary:"This book challenges the mainstream debate and explores an alternative approach to early childhood services: putting ethics and politics first in services that are essentially 'public spaces' full of unpredictable possibilities. The authors offer readers a very different way of thinking about and practising early childhood work. They make accessible important discussions in philosophy, ethics and politics, mostly unheard of in the early childhood field yet highly relevant." "The authors connect theory to practice by drawing on a wide range of examples of early childhood work in several countries, including the Northern Italian city of Reggio Emilia. This book presents essential ideas, theories and debates to an international readership, which includes practitioners, trainers, students, researchers, policy makers and anyone with an interest in early childhood education."--BOOK JACKET.
