Between 1500-1650, Europe experienced significant transformations. Large-scale land reclamation increased agricultural production but depleted natural resources. Rising populations led to inflated food prices and wages, disrupting societies. Peasants lived in poor conditions and revolted against imposed changes, though they were brutally suppressed. A new social class of gentry emerged between the nobility and commoners. Overall, this period was defined by extensive social, economic and demographic changes in European societies.

Introduction
This week we examine the history of youth social control and juvenile justice in the United States. This history is significant because it provides important lessons about our efforts to deal with problem children and it continues to inform the operation of juvenile justice.
Families and Children in Developing European Societies: Early Views of Childhood
From a historical perspective, the modern notions of childhood, adolescence, juvenile delinquency, and juvenile justice are recent developments. Throughout most of recorded history, childhood did not enjoy the special status we now accord it. The modern view that childhood and adolescence are special times during which the young need nurturing and guidance for their healthy development did not exist until the later part of the Middle Ages, and a more modern scientific understanding of children is still more recent and continues to develop.
Before, during, and well after the Middle Ages, the young were seen either as property
or as miniature adults who were usually expected to assume the same responsibilities as other adults by the time they were five or six years of age.1 Because people did not recognize childhood as a distinct period in human development throughout much of our history, they did not see a need to create a separate legal process to deal with youths who violated community norms or laws.
During the Middle Ages, a period that spanned the fifth to 15th centuries, life was difficult for most people. The collapse of the Western Roman Empire, which had dominated Western civilization for centuries, created many uncertainties for people in Western Europe. Although our knowledge of children’s lives during this time is limited, there are some indications that the young often fared poorly. For example, there is evidence that infanticide (i.e., the practice of killing children), which had been common during antiquity, continued to be practiced during the Middle Ages and after.2 Historical evidence from this period indicates that mothers sometimes deliberately suffocated
their offspring or abandoned them in the streets or latrines. According to one priest in 1527, “The latrines resounded with the cries of children who have been plunged into them.”3 Infants who were born deformed or were felt to be too burdensome were particularly vulnerable. In other instances, destitute parents abandoned their unwanted children or took them to monasteries to be raised by monks.4 These were solutions chosen by people who could not or chose not to care for their young.
The average life expectancy in the Middle-Ages was considerably shorter than today, and the young were particularly at risk from various threats, including plagues and famine. Moreover, common child-rearing practices led to the premature death of many children. Swaddl.

2. Fact #1: Large Land Reclamation
Not since the Black Death had Europe transformed so
much
Agriculture increased: more land cleared, crops grown,
better tools
More irreplaceable resources lost: more trees felled,
soil eroded, water polluted
3. Fact #2: Don’t Be a Peasant
Manors, the church and the state gained their wealth
from peasants
Peasant housing was raw
single long hall with a fireplace for heat
single window to the outside world
housing was shared during bad weather with
animals
property was limited—a chest, a table, a
bedstead, some pots and utensils
7. Fact #3: Huge Population Growth
Population growth created change
80 mil to 105 mil in Europe
France and England doubled
In 1500 4 cities had more than 100,000
In 1600 there were 8
15 large cities doubled their pop’n
London grew by 400%!
10. Fact #4: Inflation Anyone?
By midcentury a limit was reached
Guilds raised fees, limited one son per father
Increased population in town = poorer wages
Purchasing power in England was halved
Large inflation (500% in agriculture)
Increased population and metals from the New World
Commodity prices increased along with State debt
11. Fact #4: Inflation Anyone?
Inflation disrupted whole societies
99 year leases
Lords could buy goods at set prices (even from 300 years
ago!)
Push to create a surplus to sell, specialize
Many who had sold land to go to the city came back
with no land
13. Fact #5: Gentry Anyone?
European society was divided into two status groups:
nobles and commoners
Nobility implied certain rights
eligible for high office in the state
paid no taxes
In return they were expected to serve as military
commanders
Expected to raise, equip, and lead troops
Professionalism of warfare limited this by 16th century
14. Fact #5: Gentry Anyone?
Between the nobility and the commoners, a new group
without clear status was emerging
Some of the wealthiest and most powerful townsmen
rose into the lower ranks of the nobility
In the countryside, landowners separated themselves
from the labourers
This group is referred to as the gentry
16. Fact #6: Revolts All Around
Social changes led to conflict between the orders
Peasant revolts, although moderate and well organized,
were brutally suppressed
Many were in response to changes in the agricultural
system imposed by surges and recessions in the economy
Protection of woodlands and enclosure of open fields for
commercial agriculture provoked strong peasant responses
Peasant revolts broke out in Hungary in 1514, England in
1549, and Germany in 1525.
German revolt saw peasants objecting to changes taking
place in villages and demanded freedom from serfdom
17. Twelve Articles of the Peasants of
Swabia
The First Article. First, it is our humble petition and desire,
as also our will and resolution, that in the future we should
have power and authority so that each community should
choose and appoint a pastor, and that we should have the
right to depose him should he conduct himself improperly.
The pastor thus chosen should teach us the gospel pure
and simple, without any addition, doctrine, or ordinance of
man.
The Tenth Article. In the tenth place, we are aggrieved by
the appropriation by individuals of meadows and fields
which at one time belonged to a community. These we will
take again into our own hands ...
18. Fact #7: Gender Roles
The economic role of women within the household
was varied
Prepared food, kept domestic animals, educated
children and provided primary child care, made
clothing, and cleaned
In towns women might add the tasks of selling goods
and directing domestics.
Men performed more public duties
the primary agricultural tasks, the construction of farm
equipment, performance of owed labour services, and
participation in the political life of the village
20. BONUS: Festivals For Everyone!
Village church was both a spiritual and social center, a focal point for
holidays and celebrations
Communities expressed their unity by ceremonial activities in which all
members of the village participated
Weddings were significant ceremonies for the entire community
Marriages bound families—and often wealth—together
They marked the admission of a new household to the community
Because property and community approval were involved, weddings
were public affairs
Other festivals were associated with the passage of stages of the
agricultural cycle
Festivals released community members from labour and presented
opportunities to resolve community squabbles
Festivals also offered the chance for the social hierarchy of the
community to be placed on public display
22. BONUS: Ignorance Is Not Bliss
Despite the print revolution, most Europeans remained illiterate
The common man’s sense of the world around him was
individual and experiential, not scientific
16th century society was imbued with the magical
Magical solutions abounded for medical problems, changes in
the weather, disastrous harvests, and for prediction of future
events
Use of magical powers for evil was considered witchcraft
Consultation with the black powers of evil spirits and the devil,
himself, brought the repressive powers of the churches into play
Prosecutions for witchcraft became common in the sixteenth
century
Women were most often the objects of prosecutions for
witchcraft
24. What’s Next?
Large changes in Europe
Social, political, cultural and scientific revolutions are
brewing
Conflict between societies
Nobles vs. Peasants
Church vs. Peasants
Control vs. Freedom of Knowledge
