Caring for Orphaned Children in China

Beschreibung

This study applies rights-based alternative-care theory and practice for orphans to China’s child-welfare system, including its history and development in urban and rural areas. It analyses state child-welfare institutions; de-institutionalization; foster-mother villages; and current policy changes toward a mixed welfare approach.
