Sociology and Anthropology Lunch Conversations
Children’s Rights in the 21st Century: A Cross-Cultural Comparison
Should children have unique rights that are separate from adults? Should the state be able to supersede the rights of parents over their children? Questions like these are at the heart of debates around the world on what constitutes the category of “child” and how this demographic should be treated in society.

In particular, we’ll look at examples of how children are treated around the world and relate it to current events in the contemporary United States.
