Synopsis
Whilst discussion of convergence in the European Union in recent years has centred around monetary union and the single European currency, it is the convergence of living standards that is the ultimate goal of European integration. This report concentrates on the nearly 80 million children in the EU aged under 18, representing over a fifth of the total EU population. Their progress towards becoming tomorrow's adults will help to determine the shape of Europe's future. The study analyzes the trends of child wellbeing in Europe over the last two decades of the 20th century and asks whether the current wellbeing of children in different Member States and children's life chances are becoming more similar or not. Firm recommendations are made for the measurement of child wellbeing in Europe, as part of what is needed to place children centre-stage in the debate on Europe's future.

Review
This is an original contribution in terms of both understanding and, especially, evidence. The evidence presented is very carefully put together and based on extensive research. I know of no other source that provides so much detail about current trends in child well-being. Stephen P. Jenkins, Professor of Applied Economics, Institute for Social and Economic Research, University of Essex
... successful in raising consciousness regarding the situation of children and in adding to the current state of knowledge. Jounal of Public Policy
A welcome intervention into current debates about policy for improving the welfare of children. Childright
