The history of adolescence in society and culture / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The history of adolescence or history of teenagers has been a significant field of research ever since G. Stanley Hall published his journal Adolescence in 1904. The emergence of a new human life stage between childhood and adulthood became a cultural phenomenon at the start of the 20th century when compulsory schooling laws extended to high schools across the nation. This saw the debut of American youth culture in society after World War II left young people feeling isolated from the adult world.
