Abstract In this article we analyse the changes in the age of voting and eligibility for office in Sweden during the twentieth century. We scrutinise arguments, actors, and contexts. Age proved to be an important yardstick for political citizenship and a source of political conflicts of importance for the development of democratic institutions which is largely neglected in earlier research on universal suffrage. Democratisation processes not only have led to the inclusion of new groups of citizens, but also exclusions. Our study demonstrates the importance of shifting understanding of young people, family formation, demographic shifts, intergenerational power balances and constitutional dilemmas.

For a monograph covering a topic of such great magnitude – African communities in a variety of European countries and their colonies, with special consider-ation of how the intersections of gender, status, and race affected African people ’ s lives across many centuries – the relatively short length could have produced an intro-ductory work full of generalities. But the story that Otele follows is anything but. She humanises her subjects in a series of vignettes meant to draw out larger histories that inform and complicate our understanding of the heterogenous identities that African people embraced, rejected, or carefully negotiated within Europe. The cover of Lawyer, Scholar, Teacher and Activist depicts an image of Professor Roebuck ’ s books on the history of arbitration, from Ancient Greece to the eight-eenth century, positioning this Liber Amicorum as part of the series; a celebration of Derek Roebuck ’ s life, but also a transition from the work of an individual to the works of a collective of scholars (see 27, fn. 38). It offers vivid memories of friend-ships, relationships and shared experiences. At the same time, it is a triumph of original thinking and writing, and independent publishing; weaving a picture of Roebuck in four parts. Part One is a celebration of a life that reads like a novel. A husband, a friend, a mentor, a co-author, a teacher, a thinker, an activist, a cosmopolitan lawyer with a joy for life, and an arbitration legend. The reader is drawn into the world of a complex, attractive character; vignettes of marches, lunches, lectures, meetings, col-laborative projects, and writing sessions; pictures from around the world come together as fascinating narrative. Lucid, impassioned writing and skillful positioning turn sixty pages of text into what feels like a film rather than a compilation of abstract praises. A fascinating aspect of this Part is that it captures, without the sup-port of

Abstract We analyse the evolution of birth-baptism intervals between 1830 and 1949 among children born into 815 Spanish families and relate the changes observed to developments in childhood mortality. Our results show that birth-baptism intervals in our study area increased rapidly after 1890, three decades after childhood mortality began to decline and a decade before fertility began to fall. We confirm that the families increasing the intervals between their children's births and baptisms after 1890 were those whose previous children had high rates of survival. We conclude that, in the last years of the nineteenth century, families were aware of the decline in child mortality and adjusted their behaviour in response.
