描述 | .This book explores theways in which notions of childhood are being influenced by a rapidly expandingconsumer-media culture in the 21.st. Century. It has been argued thatnew stages of childhood are being created and defined by children’s role asconsumers. The concept of ‘tween’, girls aged between 9 and 14, has generatedthe greatest debate. While the fantasy world of ‘tween’ offers girls a spaceto fashion a young, feminine identity it has been widely argued that theconsumer-media’s messages pressure tween girls to consume and adopt highlysexualised appearances and behaviours. . .The author considers howthe art of consumption for ‘tween’ girls is intrinsically linked with theirdesire for independence and belonging, and how their consumption is interwovenwith other important social and cultural influences. .The book will be ofinterest to scholars and students in the fields of Childhood and YouthStudies, Cultural Studies, Feminist andWomen’s Studies and Sociology. . . . |
