A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Abstract Colin Ward's The Child in the Country [1990, Bedford Square Press, London (2nd Edn)] is discussed, and it is suggested that Ward provides an intriguing window on the geographies of rural children both as structured ‘from without’ and as experienced ‘from within’. His account here chimes with the emerging sensitivity of social-cultural geographers to the ways in which space and place are entangled in the lives of all manner of ‘other’ human groupings, children included, and new possibilities are hence opened up for reflection and research in rural geography (in particular) and rural studies (in general).
