As outdoor play decreases and children spend more time online, Kinoshita and Terada return to John Deweyâs proposal that social capital is essential for nurturing the next generation and establish a democratic and sustainable society. The book features examples from Sweden, Finland, Germany, Switzerland, the UK, and Japan, exploring methods for cultivating social capital and spaces for children to play and develop in cooperative housing, outdoor play spaces, streets, parks, and neighbourhoods. We express our gratitude to Dr. Marketta Kytta, Professor of Aalto University, who gave valuable suggestions about the key term âbullerbyâ and âsocial capitalâ.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of use to students and practitioners of\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51019134665047,"sku":"9781032597812","price":35.14,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781032597812.jpg?v=1750779416","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/social-capital-for-a-childfriendly-city-9781032597812","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
