Welcome to the Society for the History of Children and Youth.
SHCY promotes the study of the history of children
and youth. The organization (1) supports research about childhood, youth
cultures, and the experience of young people across diverse times and places;
(2) fosters study across disciplinary and methodological boundaries; (3)
provides venues for scholars to communicate with one another; and (4) promotes
excellence in scholarship. Membership is open to all individuals as well as to
cultural and educational institutions. SHCY resources for scholars and
students include regular conferences, an email discussion list (H-Childhood),
a website, newsletter, and scholarly journal (The
Journal of the History of Childhood and Youth). SHCY also
hosts a biennial conference held at various locations throughout the world.
