Abstract

In 2019, the Scottish Parliament passed a Bill that repealed the ‘reasonable chastisement’ defence in Scotland. This article provides a narrative account of this momentous reform.  It describes the history of Scotland’s law and gives an overview of a civil society campaign, coordinated by children’s organisations, to secure legal reform. It provides reflections on the campaign, setting out key learning points, including the importance of language and framing; the use of evidence; and the strength of broad coalitions. This account is offered to help inform similar campaigns to provide all children with protection from physical harm.
在苏格兰实现对儿童的平等保护:叙事性叙述
2019年,苏格兰议会通过了一项法案,废除了苏格兰的“合理惩罚”辩护。本文对这一重大改革进行了叙述。它描述了苏格兰法律的历史,并概述了由儿童组织协调的公民社会运动,以确保法律改革。它提供了对活动的反思,列出了关键的学习要点,包括语言和框架的重要性;证据的使用;以及广泛联盟的力量。提供这个帐户是为了帮助宣传类似的运动,以保护所有儿童免受身体伤害。
