Description

Explore how children shaped and were shaped by nineteenth-century consumer culture in this scholarly collection from Routledge. During an era of unprecedented commercial expansion, children occupied complex roles as consumers, commodities, and symbols of middle-class morality. This book examines how the young served multiple functions within industrialising societies: they purchased goods, were themselves treated as products to be consumed by adults, and embodied the promise that materialist ventures could foster ethical social progress. The collection also investigates children's labour contributions and their role as raw material for industrial advancement. Through diverse essays, this work reveals how childhood and consumerism became deeply intertwined, reshaping both economic structures and cultural assumptions about youth during a transformative period in history.

Key Features

Examines children's dual role as both consumers and consumed goods within nineteenth-century commercial expansion.

Explores how middle-class families used childhood and consumer goods to demonstrate social and moral advancement.

Investigates the labour contributions of children and their significance to industrial production and economic development.

Part of the Studies in Childhood, 1700 to the Present series, providing contextual depth within broader childhood scholarship.

Published by Routledge, a leading academic press specialising in rigorous historical and cultural analysis.
