9781138121072: Adoption Law and Human Rights: International Perspectives

Synopsis

Human rights have increasingly come to bear on adoption in relation to issues such as the ethical dilemmas inherent in intercountry adoption and the sometimes conflicting rights of adoptees and birth parents in relation to accessing agency birth records. This book provides a comparative analysis of the interaction between adoption law and human rights in common law, civil law and Asian countries. Key areas where international human rights and adoption law now intersect are analysed and then the book goes on to look at common law and civil law countries in order to identify, assess and differentiate the extent of national human rights and adoption law compatibility.
