Focusing on the evolving social and legal functions of adoption, this book provides a comprehensive analysis across various jurisdictions, including England, Wales, France, Sweden, Japan, and indigenous practices in New Zealand and Australia. It highlights both commonalities and differences in adoption experiences, particularly in common law versus civil law contexts. A new chapter on China enriches the discussion, while international conventions and ECtHR case law serve as benchmarks for evaluating national laws and policies, facilitating a cross-cultural comparative analysis of adoption practices.
