Description

Gain a deep understanding of non-state organized care for vulnerable children in China with this academic study from the Routledge Contemporary China Series. Based on extensive field studies and in-depth interviews conducted in both rural and urban settings, this book provides a socio-legal analysis of how care is managed outside of government systems. This work is the first full-length book to examine the specific circumstances surrounding China's lonely children (gu'er). It describes the contexts in which abandonment happens and looks closely at the care provided to children who face challenges in being adopted, particularly those with disabilities. Readers will learn about the roles played by various faith groups and humanitarian workers. The text explores the work being done in private orphanages and foster homes, offering a detailed look at the humanitarian landscape in modern China. This is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in sociology, law, and social sciences.
