<p>Children¿s rights appear universal, inalienable, and indivisible, intended to advance young people¿s interests. Yet, in practice, evidence suggests the contrary: the international framework of treaties, procedures, and national policies contains fundamental contradictions that weaken commitments to children¿s real-world protections.</p><p>Brian Gran helps us understand what is at stake when children¿s rights are compromised. This insightful text grounds readers in core theories and key data about children¿s legal entitlements.
