Conclusion: Crossing Disciplines

Abstract

The contributions gathered here collectively offer an angle of vision on children and armed conflict otherwise inaccessible from any one of them individually. Taken together, they pose problems and questions that can be made to bridge divisions often encountered in scholarly circles where there remains an impetus to reproduce familiar, even if useful, approaches and understandings. At the same time, the contributions present disciplinary and other frictions of perspective that do not always sit easily with one another. Such are the promises and challenges encountered when embarking on cross-disciplinary investigations.
