Themes of Uncertainty in the History of Adult-Child Relationships

Produktbeschreibung

What part has religion played in the history of childrearing? How do we persuade children to behave rationally and how should we exercise adult authority? Has history left us with ideas about the child which make no sense in the prevaling conditions of the late twentieth century? In "Shaping Childhood" these questions are explored through themes from the history of childhood. Today parents face raising children within a range of state agencies, institutions and a complex legal code. This volume concentrates on broader cultural forces, including religion, television, literature and mass consumption: forces which dramatically influence parenting today. It will be invaluable reading for students of cultural studies and practitioners in social work, sociology, and education.
