Why do some children voluntarily join while other children are forced to join
military organization in situations of conflict, and why do the organizations recruit them?
How is the actual number of children determined? These are the questions raised in this
paper. To address them the author draws on results and ideas from three independent lines
of research; One dealing with child labour in general, another with the study of conflicts and
the third with children’s decision-making powers based on child psychology.
