The Development of Child Protection Systems in the Post-Soviet States : A Twenty Five Years Perspective, Hardback Book

The Development of Child Protection Systems in the Post-Soviet States : A Twenty Five Years Perspective Hardback

Edited by Ilze Earner, Alexandra Telitsyna

Part of the Child Maltreatment series

Hardback

Description

This volume provides an understanding of how systems of child protection evolve in disparate cultural, social and economic contexts.

Using the former Soviet Union as a starting point, it examines how 13 countries have developed, defined and evolved their system of protecting children and providing services to families over the last 25 years since independence.

The volume runs an uniform approach in each country and then traces the development of unique systems, contributing to the international understanding of child protection and welfare.  This volume is a fascinating study for social scientists, social workers, policy makers with particular interest to those focusing on children, youth, and family issues alike as each chapter offers a clear and compelling view of the central changes, competing claims and guiding assumptions that have formed each countries individual approach to child protection and family services.
