Summary
Janusz Korczak, whose original name was Henryk Goldszmit, is seen as the father of the idea that children also have rights - human rights. His thinking had an impact on the drafting of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and continues to influence the child-friendly programs of the Council of Europe. Korczak's message was about respect for children, respect for their inherent value as human beings but also for their capacity and competence. His essay "The Child's Right to Respect" in which he analyzes the role of adults and the place of children in society, is published in this volume.--Publisher's description
