Sobre este libro

In the mills of Manchester and the mines of the Ruhr, children as young as five formed the backbone of an industrializing continent long before any classroom claimed them. This is not a sentimental history of lost innocence but a sober reconstruction of how economic necessity, religious doctrine, and emerging state power competed to define what a child should become. From the parish apprentices of eighteenth-century England to the compulsory schooling laws that swept across Prussia and France, the book traces the slow, contested shift from child as productive asset to child as protected citizen. It examines how reformers, factory owners, and parents themselves negotiated the boundary between survival and exploitation, between discipline and care. What emerges is a Europe that invented childhood only by first denying it—and that the reforms we now take for granted were neither inevitable nor universally embraced. The book closes by considering what this history reveals about contemporary debates over child labor, educational access, and the rights of the young in an unequal world.
