This essay prioritizes the childrens own wishes regarding work and therefore a discussion about African culture is relevant. One major theory of the essay is whether the conventions about child labour in international law have a western point of view and how that can be problematic in the implementation. The most important aspects to consider are the childrens views, the companys activities and the directions in international law. By analyzing different arguments from the aspects, the conclusion is that the context you are working in is of great importance when dealing with a problem containing several significant actors. By working in this direction a solution will be found for decreasing the numbers of children who are being used in the cocoa plantations. (Less)
