      abstract = {This book explores how humanitarian interventions for  children in difficult circumstances engage in affective  commodification of disadvantaged childhoods. The chapters  consider how transnational charitable industries are  created and mobilized around childhood need--highlighting  children in situations of war and poverty, and with  indeterminate access to health and education--to redirect  global resource flows and sentiments in order to address  concerns of child suffering. The authors discuss examples  from around the world to show how, as much as these  processes can help achieve the goals of aid organizations,  such practices can also perpetuate the conditions that  organizations seek to alleviate and thereby endanger the  very children they intend to help.},
