| Description: |
Concluding Remarks reminds readers of the creativity and the power of humans as group members, whether young or old. Babies in Groups has undertaken to build hitherto-lacking pathways to connect newborns with the group-immersed grownup, based on research which shows that the groupness of humans is evident in the first months of life. In this way, the book constructs an account of human beginnings which contrasts with better-known paradigms that assume human social development has an infant–adult couple as its foundation stone and template. Concluding Remarks provides further intellectual and political context for the clash of visions Babies in Groups describes by reflecting on debates about childcare which pivoted around the Second World War. |
