ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book describes the possibility of young people's politics through poetic sensibilities. It explains the cerebral palsy and the US health system, ecological change in China, schoolyard violence and educational transformations in Chile, child work in immigrant communities in the US, and young people struggling against statelessness in Slovenia, using ethnopoetry as a lyrical tool that attempts to create a field of opening and experimentation. The spatial theories are awkwardly summarized through spatial trials, surprise and dislocation, radical ethical acts and geo-power interleaved with coming communities. Poetry speaks to an aesthetics that is more than just about creating a landscape of carefully selected words assembled in ways that are striking and provocative. Craig Jeffrey's sentiments concisely position the potential of children's geographies to articulate some of the most important transformations and changes of our times.
