Life on the Malecon: Children and Youth on the Streets of Santo Domingo (Series in Childhood Studies (Hardcover)) - Hardcover
Provides a narrative ethnography of the lives of street children and youth living in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and the non-governmental organisations that provide social services for them. Writing from the perspective of an anthropologist working as a street educator with a child welfare organisation, Jon M. Wolseth follows the intersecting lives of children, the institutions they come into contact with, and the relationships they have with each other, their families, and organisation workers.

Review:
"The stories Wolseth tells are compelling. The children's voices challenge readers to rethink one-sided views about poor street youth and encourage them to adopt more nuanced approaches to poor kids 'choices.' Brilliant work!"--Martha K. Huggins "Tulane University "
"Life on the Malec?n captures the experience of street children and youth at a particular point and time in Santo Domingo, and it tells a very important story about childhood and community, survival and strategies, and interconnected relationships and agencies."--American Anthropologist
