“…A different tradition based on social sciences, has been most frequently dedicated to macrolevel research, receiving contributions from many disciplines, including the sociological tradition studying childhood as a social phenomenon (Qvortrup, ), and the tradition of the social indicators movement (Bauer, ; Casas, ), frequently aiming to monitor the “state of children” in large populations. According to Ben‐Arieh (), this confluence of social disciplines have given birth to what is currently known as “the child indicators movement.” The same author points to five major global trends that have contributed to this movement: The recognition of children's rights at international level, particularly after the adoption of the United Nations Convention. The “new” sociology of childhood (Gaitán, ). The ecology of child development (Bronfenbrenner & Morris, ). New methodological perspectives in child studies: valuing the subjective viewpoints of child participants, accepting children as a unit of observation, and systematically collecting child statistics in certain countries. The desire to improve policy decisions by collecting and disseminating better data on all areas of child and adolescent life. …”

“…Antes de esto, los niños aparecían en la investigación social solo esporádicamente, bien para ilustrar problemas sociales (como la delincuencia), o bien acompañando a la explicación de instituciones sociales, como la familia o la escuela. Incluso el protagonismo que tienen los niños en el paradigma funcionalista de la socialización, se produce al pairo de un objetivo científico distinto, cual es el estudio de los sistemas sociales (Gaitán, 2014).…”

“…En ninguna otra etapa de la vida, las expectativas sociales imponen un comportamiento tan tasado a cualquier ser humano como en la infancia. Cuando en realidad, la conducta (de cualquier persona) depende de muchos factores, entre otros, las experiencias vividas y las oportunidades de autonomía de pensamiento y acción que se le ofrezcan (Gaitán, 2014).…”

“…Además, de acuerdo con Lourdes Gaitán (2013: 2), los desarrollos teóricos dentro del campo de la sociología de la infancia son más bien escasos, porque se ha privilegiado "la demostración empírica de que otro papel de los niños es posible dentro de una concepción diferente del significado de la propia infancia". No obstante, en los últimos años ha resurgido una inquietud por abordar aspectos teóricos (Gaitán, 2014). Nos interesa proponer una primera aproximación hacia cómo ha sido entendido este concepto en las ciencias sociales y de modo particular, dentro de los estudios de infancia, a fin de aportar con elementos teóricos y bibliográficos en este debate sobre las formas de acción de las niñas y los niños en el mundo social.…”
