Resumen

MONTANDON, Cléopâtre. Sociologia da infância: balanço dos trabalhos em língua inglesa. Cad. Pesqui. [online]. 2001, n.112, pp.33-60. ISSN 0100-1574.

This article does a retrospective analysis of publications on childhood in the area of sociology, examining texts in the English language produced not just in Anglo-Saxon and Scandinavian countries, but also the contributions from countries and regions such as Germany, South Africa, Australia and Eastern and Southern Europe. It points to the emergence of a new field of studies, the sociology of childhood, viewed as a specific social construction, which has its own culture and deserves to be considered with its own particular traits.
