About the Book:
A pioneering anthology examining the social, political, and cultural construction of childhood. Martin Hoyles brings together essays that question long-held assumptions about children as passive subjects, exploring instead how education, work, gender, class, and race shape the modern experience of being a child.
Contributors include historians, educators, and cultural theorists; an accompanying visual essay by Peter Fuller documents the evolving representation of children in art and media.
The collection situates the notion of childhood as a historical phenomenonone that both reflects and challenges changing moral and political sensibilities.
