Children gaze out from ruins or from behind the barbed wire of refugee camps, and their suffering haunts us. They are the media's darlings in times of war, not that members of the media treat them preferentially, but that they make for images that will sell newspaper or improve ratings of the evening news. Kuper goes behind the suffering faces and examines the relationships of these children with the soldiers responsible for their condition, pondering questions about the obligations of national armed forces toward children caught in the conflict, the feasibility of fulfilling these obligations during war, and the means by which members of the armed forces can be encouraged to comply. With case studies to back up her assertions, Kuper addresses those involved with making policy and law on how children are to be treated during wartime and those responsible for carrying it out.
