Christopher Peys @chrispeys.bsky.social · 06/10/2025This discussion of #children is developed largely terms of the work of David Oswell, Michael Cummings, J.

Christopher Peys @chrispeys.bsky.social · 06/10/2025This article explores the utopian potential of Article 12 of the UNCRC. It is in terms of this Article—which pertains to children’s “right to be heard"—that I argue that children should be treated as equal citizens within our world’s various spaces of democracy. 120
