This Transnational Childism Colloquium brings together a diversity of perspectives to develop conceptual clarity about what could and should be meant by the term childism.
What does the notion of childism mean, particularly but not only in its childhood studies sense?
How could childism contribute to better understandings of human beings and relations?
How is the concept related to and distinct from philosophies in feminism, liberalism, poststructuralism, and other philosophies?
How is childism a challenge to the discipline of philosophy itself?
