About the Book

In recent time, a number of formal networks of child research have been established. One of such recently formed networks is the IUAES Commission on Children, Youth and Childhood. Majority of the contributors to this volume are members of this newly established network. One of the initial and most important aims of this network is to encourage research about children in which children are themselves active participants as opposed to being just objects of study as they were most often in the past About Author : Deepak Kumar Behera holds a PhD from Sambalpur University where he has taught since 1985 and is a fulltime professor of social anthropology. He is a member of the Executive Committee of International Union of Anthropological and Ethnological Sciences (IUAES) for the period 1998-2008. Professor Behera is the Chairperson of the IUAES Commission on Anthropology of Children, Youth and Childhood. Margaret Trawick has been Professor of Social Anthropology at Massey University, New Zealand since 1992. From 1979 to 1992 she taught at Hobart and William Smith Colleges in Geneva and New York.
