As scholars in childhood studies and beyond seek to expand understandings of agency in children's lives, this collection places science fiction at the heart of this endeavor. Retellings of the past, narratives of the present, and new landscapes of the future, each explored in science fiction, allow for creative reimaginings of the capabilities, movements, and agency of youth. Core themes of generation, embodiment, family, identity, belonging, gender, and friendship traverse across the chapters and inform the contributors' readings of various film, literature, television, and virtual media sources. Here, children and youth are heterogeneous, and agency as a central analytical concept is interrogated through interdisciplinary, intersectional, intergenerational, and posthuman analyses. The contributors argue that there is vast power in science fiction representations of children's agency to challenge accepted notions of neoliberal agency, enhance understandings of agency in childhood studies, and further contextualize agency in the lives, voices, and cultures of youth"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Science fiction, American $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Science fiction, English $x History and critcism. 650 0 $a Children in literature. 650 0 $a Young adults in literature. 650 0 $a Children in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Children in mass media. 650 0 $a Motion pictures $z United States $x History and criticism. 650 7 $a Children in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00855252 650 7 $a Children in mass media. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01902762 650 7 $a Children in motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00855253 650 7 $a Motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027285 650 7 $a Science fiction, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01108635 650 7 $a Young adults in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01183237 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 $i Online version: $t Child and youth agency in science fiction $d Lanham : Lexington Books, 2019. $z 9781498597395 $w (DLC) 2019039900 700 1 $a Castro, Ingrid E., $e editor. 700 1 $a Clark, Jessica, $d 1986- $e editor. 700 1 $a Westfahl, Gary, $e writer of afterword. 830 0 $a Children and youth in popular culture. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317031643.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E5B4CBC02DF611EAB868BF0597128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
