    La protezione dell’infanzia in una prospettiva storica
    in Rivista di Studi Politici Internazionali , Volume 78, n. 1, gennaio-marzo ,  2011 ,  89-104
    The history of children’s rights is a painful story of pedagogical acquisitions and improvement of work laws. In the Nineteenth century the children’s destinies are similar to those of women that became the protagonists of important battles for children. While pedagogues as Janus Korczakm Ellen Key and Anna Maria Montessori conceive a theory of education, liberty and responsibility, benefactresses such as Kate Courtney, Dorothy Buxton, Mary Sheepshanks, Eglantyne Jebb struggle for childhood’s rights. The International Save the Children Union, The International Red Cross and other organisations work together for the International Declaration of the Rights of the Child, proclaimed in 1923. After the Second World War, this declaration is the fundamental basis on which the United Nations Organisation, in 1946, promotes the birth of Unicef, in the spirit of the San Francisco Charter. Then come the Declaration of the Rights of the Child in 1959, and the Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989. Today however there is a vast world of injuried and denied childhood, which is exposed to the same ork conditions existent at the beginning of this historical path
