25 SES 11, Participation as a Theme in Children’s Rights Research
Paper Session
Contribution
This contribution aims to analyze leadership in relation to child protection from violence according to the requirements of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). Leaning on research stressing the need for transformative leaders (Shields, 2013) the paper strives to explore school leaders’ conceptions of particular cases of violence at a boarding school in Sweden as a question of socialization of leaders at the Swedish capitalistic society (cf. Anyon, 1997; Anyon, 2009).
