CASTILLO-GALLARDO, Patricia. Inequality and childhood: a critical reading of the history of childhood in Chile and Latin America. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2015, vol.13, n.1, pp.97-109. ISSN 1692-715X.  https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.1314030214.

This article engages in a critical reading of the history of childhood in Chile and Latin America since the pre-hispanic age in order to help understand the mechanisms of legitimization of social inequality that have existed. The history of childhood in Chile is similar to other countries in Latin America and as a result this analysis can allow for a better understanding of the construction and legitimization of social order.

Keywords : history of childhood; inequality; Chilean children; Latin American children.
