"A pioneering effort, this book provides a penetrating analysis of problems facing the implementation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child (ORC) in Bangladesh, and offers, hopefully, realistic solutions. Its relevance extends to all developing countries where progress in children’s rights leaves much to be desired even after a decade of the adoption of the CRC by the international community. The book is a must for researchers, policy makers and practitioners in the field". (jacket)
