Recensione:

'Dion Sommer does a great service by localizing children's development and socialization in our rapidly changing times. From a Scandinavian outlook on the world early in the 21st century, the author provides a highly refreshing account. New stimulating conceptual understandings and interdisciplinary research is presented in order to explain young children's 'new realities'. It is a highly well-timed reflective contextual approach proposing a paradigm shift.' – Professor Michael Cole, University of California, San Diego, USA
 
'This is a groundbreaking book with a convincing new paradigm of great value for the field of Early Childhood Education.' - Ingrid Pramling Samuelsson, International Journal of Early Childhood
