书目名称 | The Politics of Adoption | 副标题 | International Perspe | 编辑 | Kerry O’Halloran | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | Adoption has always had a political dimension. Its potential use to achieve political ends has been evident throughout history and in many different cultures. In Roman 1 times an emperor would adopt a successful general to continue his rule. In Ireland under the Brehon Laws the reciprocal placements of children between clans was 2 an accepted means of cementing mutual allegiances. In Japan the adoption of non-relatives was traditionally seen as a means of allying with the fortunes of 3 the ruling family. The willingness of governments to use adoption as a political strategy was apparent, for example, in Australia where it was used to further 4 the assimilation of indigenous people. It is now present in the phenomenon of intercountry adoption where the ?ow of children, particularly in the aftermath of war, is often politics by proxy and which arguably attracts the involvement of 5 some countries for reasons of economic and political expediency. Adoption does not function in isolation. It plays a distinct role within the c- text of family law proceedings. The extent to which it is available as a resource for children in the public care system or as an adjunct to marriage proceedings | 出版日期 | Book 20061st edition | 关键词 | Adoption; Adoption Law; Adoption Politics; Adoption policy & practice; Adoption processes; Common Law Ado | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/1-4020-4154-3 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4020-4154-9 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2006 |
