What do children say about this broad social and cultural world affected by covid-19? What feelings and utopias have children from Rio de Janeiro experienced? These are questions that guided our research, carried out in 2021, when we interviewed 73 children, between 4 and 12 years old, living in the state capital and metropolitan area of Rio de Janeiro. The research involved five groups, linked to two public universities in the region, and we opted for the familiarity network technique in order to reach the children. The results indicate that the children operated their feelings in the present time, as a way of understanding reality and imagining futures to nurture utopia while recording what substantiates all that has already been lived.

This paper deals with theoretical, methodological and ethical questions raised when embracing children as subjects of research in an ethnography of the agency of the bullying concept in Brazilian contemporaneity. In order to situate these challenges in an empirical context, the paper delineates as a case study the connections that children today make between the agency of this concept and the attribution of pejorative nicknames among school peers.

The research examined the visual understanding of the peace of children in the South East and South West of Barranquilla. We developed the investigation with a group of sixty-nine children from Barranquilla, some whose families experienced the armed conflict and others who did not experience it directly. Both groups understand peace as peaceful social interactions that are built from their families and schools while distinguishing themselves in the way each group understands the conflict. The former represents the conflict based on the armed violence experienced by their families in rural areas, while the latter refers to the urban violence in their neighborhoods.

Childhood is a key stage in the assimilation of values and behavioural patterns that shape identity. Among the socializing agents that influence this complex process are the audiovisual media. Therefore, the products that are made available to children and the protection of the child from harmful contents are essential to complete the training process in such a sensitive period of cognitive development. In this research we analyze the influence of television content in the process of constructing the identity of the child as well as the regulatory framework of audiovisual protection applied in Spain. A decade after the entry into force of Law 7/2010 of 31 March, General of Audiovisual Communication (LGCA), many of the challenges posed remain unresolved. As main conclusions we stress the need to respect the special protection schedule, the incorporation of thematic descriptors in the signalling of audiovisual products and a complete legislative categorization of harmful contents to children's and young people's development.

Until recently, the study of environmental beliefs and attitudes has been focused on adults. However, a better understanding of children's environmental awareness is needed, since this will make it easier for future generations to assume the demands of pro-environmentalism. This paper highlights the importance of environmental experiences during childhood for the development of pro-environmental attitudes. We discuss different data about Spanish children's ecological awareness, measured with the New Environmental Paradigm (NEP) scale and the Children's Environmental Perception Scale (CEPS). According to our findings, Spanish children show a medium-high level of ecological awareness. In addition, we propose a model describing four ecological profiles: eco-oriented, lounge ecologists, utilitarians, and techno-oriented. We conclude by highlighting the value of experiences of contact with nature for children's pro-environmentalism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
