Abstract

Increasing emphasis is being placed on the need to consider children's rights in planning decisions. However, the way these rights are claimed by adults can be problematic, especially when planning decisions are controversial and contested. Drawing on interview data with participants engaged in campaigning around the development of a green space in Cardiff, we show how the adult appropriation of children's rights to support such campaigns may not only be misleading but potentially damaging. We conclude by discussing the limits of age-based rights claims and the need to ensure that children's rights are not appropriated for adult agendas.

在公共空间运动中援引儿童权利话语

现在越来越强调在规划决定时必须考虑到儿童的权利。然而，成年人主张这些权利的方式可能会有问题，尤其是在规划决策存在争议和争议的情况下。根据对参与卡迪夫绿色空间开发活动的参与者的采访数据，我们展示了成年人如何挪用儿童权利来支持此类活动不仅可能具有误导性，而且可能具有破坏性。最后，我们讨论了基于年龄的权利主张的局限性，以及确保儿童权利不被成人议程占用的必要性。
