Description - Centuries of Child Labour by Marjatta Rahikainen

The author argues that some of the conventional wisdom on child labour can be qualified, and even questioned, if we turn from the experiences of leading 19th-century countries, such as Britain and France, to economically and politically weaker countries of Northern Europe. Taking a long-term perspective, from the 17th to the 20th century, Dr Rahikainen aims to convey a richer sense of child labour, by comparing the experiences of the Northern European (Scandinavian) periphery to the paradigmatic cases of Britain and France.
