Forum Modernisation, Women and Children : ‘child removal’ in Britain and beyond : a lifecourse approach

‘Child removal’ was practiced on a vast scale in Britain and its empire. It is defined here as the placing of children deemed to be ‘in trouble’ or ‘at risk’ into residential institutions run by state, civil and religious organisations. e precise number of children involved during the peak period of its use – the nineteenth and twentieth centuries - will never be fully known but is likely to have run into millions. is article begins to reframe familiar but segmented histories of child-saving, child protection and youth justice as part of a wider history of child removal. Using a life course approach, it outlines the complex factors that drove child removal as practiced by different agencies and then suggests how historians might begin to assess its impacts.
