Each generation of American children across the tumultuous
20th-century has come of age in a very different world. How do
major historical events - such as war or the depression - influence
children's development? Children in Time and Place brings together
social historians and developmentalists to explore the implications
of a changing society for children's growth and life chances.
Transitions provide a central theme, from historical transitions to
the social transitions of children and their developmental
experiences. The book has two stories to tell, one about children
growing up and coming of age in various times and places, and
another about how collaboration worked across the disciplines of
history and psychology. Children in Time and Place begins with
studies that link historical and life transitions in children's
lives, with an emphasis on wartime experience. It turns to studies
of historical variation in the effect of life transitions, from the
onset of sexual experience in girl's lives to the transition to
fatherhood in boys, and it concludes by introducing the reader to
the collaborative efforts involved in the workshop that led to the
volume.
