ABSTRACT
This chapter seeks to lay out the interconnection between children’s rights and professional practices within the child protection services. In this effort, it focuses on the constitutionality of human rights, and how they not only regulate professional rights-based practices, but also how rights must shape epistemically how practices are developed. As the focus of the book is on the child’s right to express itself through administrative proceedings, key traits regarding how to understand such a right on street level will be presented.
