 ct: At the turn of the twentieth century\, Argentina possessed one of th
 e largest and most influential anarchist movements in the world\, with a
 narchists throughout the country not only playing a leading role in labo
 ur agitation\, but also developing rationalist educational programmes\, 
 rejecting organised religion\, challenging established gender norms\, an
 d seeking to redefine the traditional family and home. However\, despite
  an increasing awareness of the cultural impact of anarchism on working-
 class life in Argentina\, and a growing body of literature on anarchists
 ' relationship to gender\, sexuality\, education\, and health\, historia
 ns in the field have\, to date\, focused almost exclusively on anarchist
  adults\, paying little attention to the ways in which children experien
 ced - and participated - in anarchist militancy.  From the perspective o
 f the authorities\, children occupied a prominent position within the an
 archist movement\, regularly taking part in protests\, whilst anarchists
  themselves not only stressed the agency and autonomy of the young\, but
  also found inspiration in children's apparent sense of freedom and lack
  of inhibitions. Therefore\, in this talk\, I discuss the role of childr
 en in the anarchist circles of Buenos Aires\, as well as\, more broadly\
 , local anarchists' understandings of childhood and adulthood\, respecti
 vely\, between the late-nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries.\n\nNatha
 niel Andrews is a Simon Research Fellow at the Department of History at 
 the University of Manchester.
