Child Labor: A Normative Perspective
从弱主体性、分配不平等和伤害三个规范性视角分析童工，指出并非所有儿童劳动都同样应受谴责，某些工作可能有益，而另一些如性剥削和债役工则必须优先消除，但全面禁止可能适得其反。
Examining child labor through the lenses \n of weak agency, distributive inequality, and harm suggests \n that not all work performed by children is equally morally \n objectionable. Some work, especially work that does not \n interfere with or undermine their health or education, may \n allow children to develop skills they need to become \n well-functioning adults and broaden their future \n opportunities. Other work, including child prostitution and \n bonded labor, is unambiguously detrimental to children. \n Eliminating these forms of child labor should be the highest \n priority. Blanket bans on all child labor may drive families \n to choose even worse options for their children, however. \n Moreover, child labor is often a symptom of other problems \n poverty, inadequate education systems, discrimination within \n families, ethnic conflicts, inadequately protected human \n rights, weak democratic institutions that will not be \n eliminated by banning child labor.
