The World Yearbook of Education 2009 volume: Childhood Studies and the Impact of Globalization examines the concept of ''childhood'' and ''childhood development and learning'' from educational, sociological and psychological perspectives. This contributed volume seeks to explicitly provide a series of windows into the construction of childhood around the world, as a means to conceptualizing and more sharply defining the emerging field of global and local childhood studies. At the global level there has been an increasing discontent with how children have been reified and measured. Prevailing Eurocentric and North-American notions of ''childhood'' and ''development'' across the North-South boundaries show vast differences in how ''childhood'' is constructed and how ''development'' is theorized.
