Abstract

As the world continues to urbanize and the impact of the Anthropocene is still being heralded as central to our shared scholarly concern, the challenges of sustainability and the battles of the resilience of humans and non-humans will be increasingly concentrated in cities, particularly in the lower-middle-income countries where the pace of urbanization is fastest. This chapter provides a cartography of research on children in cities and the sustainability of cities in regard to children’s experiences while also introducing the reader to the two key research sites explored in this book. It exposes the limitations of theories and practices of sustainability, with one purpose of the book being to rethink or even consider rejecting the idea of sustainability altogether as useful in children’s lives.
