Professor of Childhood Studies. Children’s identity, socialization and meaning-making in interplay of popular culture, friendships, and family life. Theoretical focus on relationality of human and non-human actors in different sociomaterial assemblages.
Age categories gloss over complexities and nuances, and are sometimes used as an uncritical entity in childhood studies. This study explores how Norwegian seventh-grade girls, considered to be tweens, understand and enact their age through a relational ontological approach. #childhood #tweens
