Series: Elements in Child Development
Children in War
Attachment, Trauma, Support, and Recovery
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 July 2026
Summary
The Element Children in War describes the impact of armed conflicts and war on children and family life and elaborates on ways in which children in and after war can be supported. Attachment theory rooted in the World Wars raging in the 20th century is one of the authors' conceptual underpinnings. The protracted Russian war against Ukraine served as the driving rationale for this Element. Its deleterious effects on child development but also the untold reserves in parents and professionals show that families under siege can profit from support to create safe, stable and shared care for the children. Two developmental scientists recognized for their attachment research and a child psychiatrist working 'in situ' during the war in Ukraine wrote this brief but evidencebased and comprehensive treatise on children and families weathering war. The authors aim to reach researchers but also policymakers and professionals working with children in wartime and its aftermath.
