Details

This comprehensive book provides a global overview of how bullying and peer victimization affect children and adolescents.

Organised by geographical regions, the chapters outline socio-cultural contexts of bullying in 110 countries/societies. Researchers and practitioners present anti-bullying prevention and intervention methods as well as the existence (or absence) of laws and policies to protect children and adolescents from bullying. They present detailed insights from countries/societies where research on the subject is limited and explore the concept of bullying in many non-Western countries/societies.

Bullying: Global Case Studies in Policy and Prevention for Young People is an essential resource for students and academics in education, psychology, public policy, social work and sociology. It is also a vital read for practitioners working with children and adolescents who are affected by bullying, providing crucial frameworks for tackling bullying worldwide.

Key Features:

  • Brings together a global network of researchers from 110 countries and societies
  • Presents cutting-edge research into the nature and impact of bullying among children and adolescents
  • Investigates global anti-bullying, prevention and intervention strategies and anti-bullying laws and policies
