- Summary
- By utilizing a diverse range of unpublished source materials drawn from three different continents, David M. Pomfret examines the emergence of children and childhood as a central historical force in the global history of empire in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This book is unusual in its scope, extending across the two empires of Britain and France and to points of intense impact in "tropical" places where indigenous, immigrant, and foreign cultures mixed: Hong Kong, Singapore, Saigon, and Hanoi. It thereby seeks to highlight the important of children's lives and the childhood they embodied in empire, the diverse relationships children built, and their engagement with cultural ideologies of different, whether of class, race, gender or age
