Iris Nentwig-Gesemann and Werner Thole are responsible for the thematic focus "Children's Perspectives", which presents contributions that attempt to empirically address the changed perspectives on children and childhood on different issues from a historical or current perspective. For the pedagogy of childhood, they represent a hitherto rather marginal research perspective centrally and thus thematize a different understanding of the production of childhoods. In different forms, the contributions assume that children's experience-based knowledge, their action-guiding orientations and relevancies, as well as their practice and practices are also relevant for understanding and (further) developing pedagogical practice. Based on the recognition that theoretical and practical knowledge cannot be hierarchized, it is argued that children's perspectives should be considered significant alongside theoretical and conceptual, organizational and political, parent- and educator-based perspectives.
