《儿童、青年和家庭地理学》正在蓬勃发展，但其基本概念需要批判性反思。本文认为一个关键的正统概念：儿童是有能力的社会行为者的概念。在一个建立在自由主义代理概念基础上的领域，我们确定了研究代理的好处和代理的有益性质之间的概念性省略。拥抱后结构主义女权主义的挑战，我们提出了一个政治进步的概念框架，集中体现在权力内出现的人类机构。我们认为，这是可以实现的，通过密集/广泛的空间分析，并专注于“生物社会的存在和生物”在个人/代际时间的动态概念。
Geographies of Children, Youth and Families is flourishing, but its founding conceptions require critical reflection. This paper considers one key conceptual orthodoxy: the notion that children are competent social actors. In a field founded upon liberal notions of agency, we identify a conceptual elision between the benefits of studying agency and the beneficial nature of agency. Embracing post-structuralist feminist challenges, we propose a politically-progressive conceptual framework centred on embodied human agency which emerges within power. We contend this can be achieved though intensive/extensive analyses of space, and a focus on 'biosocial beings and becomings' within dynamic notions of individual/intergenerational time.
