On 12 and 13 March 2011, The Centre for British Studies, Humboldt 
University, Berlin is hosting a two-day conference on the History of 
Juvenile Delinquency in the 19th and 20th Centuries: East-West 
Comparisons. The conference organisers are Heather Ellis and Lily Chang. 
We hope to bring together scholars working in a variety of fields, 
including history, sociology and literary studies to explore the ways in 
which concepts of childhood, youth and delinquency have been shaped by 
particular cultural contexts. How have attempts to define and 
problematize child and youth behaviours differed between Eastern and 
Western cultures? Have children and childhood been imagined differently 
in East and West?

Paper topics include:

* Definitions of juvenile delinquency
* Cross-cultural constructions of children, childhood and youth
* Delinquency as a Western/Eastern construct
* Generational relations
* Educational systems
* Governmental and legal responses
* Young people and revolution
* Young people and war
* Gender and delinquency
* Class and delinquency
* Race and delinquency
* Sexuality and delinquency
* Portrayals of delinquency in art or in the media

We welcome proposals for both panels and individual papers. Abstracts 
should be no more than 300 words. Please ensure that a title, your name, 
affiliation and email address are included with your abstract.

Registration forms will be available for downloading on the conference 
website:
