Childhood in South East Europe : historical perspectives on growing up in the 19th and 20th century - v. 2

Growing interest in the research of childhood can be regarded as an important factor in the long-term processes of changes, which have radically transformed history as an academic discipline.

This is especially true for historiography in the South East European countries, where social history and historical anthropology is still marginal.

This book presents 18 contributions focussing on the 19th and 20th centuries.

Topics like "upbringing of female children in Serbia" or "rural childhoods in mountain regions of Austria and Greece" are as well touched as "children and war" and "children and migration".

For the first time this book provides an international readership an overall picture on childhood in South Eastern Europe.
