In Ch. 1 of his book, Sociology of Childhood, Corsaro introduced the term “interpretive reproduction” that, he claims (and many in the field have agreed) nicely replaces the old term “socialization.” Explain, in your own words what you understand from the term “interpretive reproduction.” By using an example for both terms, show how “interpretive reproduction” enhances our understanding of children’s lives and childhood over “socialization.” Of course, if you prefer “socialization” over “interpretive reproduction”, then, please state your case as well.
