      abstract = {This edited book offers a collection of highly nuanced  accounts of children and childhoods in peace and conflict  across political time and space. Organized according to  three broad themes (ontologies, pedagogies, and  contingencies), each chapter explores the complexities of a  particular case study, providing new insights into the ways  childrens lives figure as terrains of engagement,  contestation, ambivalence, resistance, and reproduction of  militarisms. The first three chapters challenge dominant  ontologies that prefigure childhood in particular ways.  These include who counts as a child worthy of protection,  questions of voice and participation, and the diminution of  agency. The chapters in the second section bring to view  everyday pedagogies whereby myriad knowledges,  performances, practices, and competencies may function to  militarize childrens lives, including in but not limited to  advanced (post)industrial societies of the global North.  The third and final section includes investigations that  foreground questions of responsibility to children. Here,  contributors assess, among other things,  resilience-building, the exigencies of protection, and the  ethics of military recruitment practices targeting  children. J. Marshall Beier is Professor in the Department  of Political Science at McMaster University, Canada. Jana  Tabak is Assistant Professor in the Department of  International Relations at the State University of Rio de  Janeiro, Brazil.},
