요약 : This dissertation examines the dynamics of race, gender, childhood and education through the Sherman Institute, a federal off-reservation school for American Indians, the Voorhis School for Boys, a progressive home for "orphan boys of all races," and two Methodist-run schools for Latino youth that include the Spanish American Institute for boys and the Frances De Pauw School for girls. This study explores the ways that gender informed the aims and policies of these schools, as all relied heavily upon "modern" ideas about womanhood and manhood as the ground upon which children could become productive citizens. Furthermore, all four institutions interacted with the broad and burgeoning disciplines known collectively as the child sciences and consequently, offer a window into the discursive production of knowledge about youth. Recent scholarship highlights the increasing prominence of "normality" in shaping the "child sciences" during the 1920s, and the shifting gaze of child experts away from minority and poor youth toward middle-class, white youth. My study builds on this work, but argues that, in southern California, a strong tradition of social welfare persisted. Child welfare workers and educators took popular elements of the child sciences and blended them with social reform ideas and practices to produce a more regionally styled approach to children's services that continued to focus on poor, minority children. In doing so, they ensured the cultural authority of white, middle-class philanthropic and city leaders over the immigrant and racialized populations of southern California. Finally, the focus of my dissertation on a diverse range of student populations reflects the transnational networks and multiculturalism of southern California and the U.S. West, and suggests the importance of this region in illuminating U.S. and comparative histories of childhood.
