Our 2022 Autumn conference looked back at Peter Laslett and Richard Wall’s Household and Family in Past Time, 50 years after its publication.

The Conference was held at the Cambridge Group for Population and Social Structure, in the Department of Geography, University of Cambridge and on Zoom. This meant we were able to record the papers and questions, and make them available to our members and the public online.

You can watch the whole conference on Youtube here, or see the page below for videos of the individual papers.
