Abstract

In the last two decades, there is a burgeoning interest in understanding children’s lives and childhoods(s) worldwide as well as in India. In India, conceptual and empirical work in this area, though not formalised or unified under a particular discipline such as childhood studies, education, sociology, anthropology, psychology or development studies, have critiqued western normative framing of childhood and formulated meaningful and just ways of engaging with children’s lives and childhoods in the global south (see for example, Balagopalan, 2014; Hopkins & Sriprakash, 2016; Kumar, 2016; Nieuwenhuys, 2009; Raman, 2000; Saraswathi et al., 2017; Vasanta, 2004).
