This project is an historical sociological study, which examines the unfolding Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse alongside past Inquiries into child maltreatment. It explores how changing understandings of children's development, vulnerability and rights have shaped social policy, educational responses and public attitudes towards safeguarding children and promoting their wellbeing. In particular, it investigates how concepts of childhood and policy approaches are changing as a result of social imperatives for openness and disclosure about matters once considered taboo. This project will advance conceptual policy insights on this major social issue and sociological knowledge of childhood and the forms and effects of late modernity.

该项目是一项历史社会学研究，它考察了正在展开的皇家委员会对儿童性虐待的机构反应以及过去对虐待儿童的调查。它探讨了对儿童发展、脆弱性和权利的不断变化的理解如何塑造了社会政策、教育对策和公众对保护儿童和促进儿童福祉的态度。特别是，它调查了童年的概念和政策方法是如何变化的，因为社会需要公开和披露曾经被认为是禁忌的事情。该项目将推进对这一重大社会问题的概念性政策见解，以及对童年和晚期现代性的形式和影响的社会学知识。
