To acknowledge society’s behaviour towards children is to reveal the understanding and explanation of cultural reproduction and transformation at the innermost core of human history

We are an active, inclusive Society.
We have a Journal, Childhood in the Past, an annual International Conference, and a Monograph Series. We support research in the discipline, graduate studies and related events with small grants.

Join the Society
Membership of the Society brings with it a copy of the Society’s journal, including online access to the current issue and all back-issues, reduced fees for the annual conference, and an introduction to a wide network of researchers interested in Childhood in the Past.
