Bol While the number of children that are available for adoption has dropped in the West, the demand for adoptable children has not ceased growing. The result is that today two-thI'ds of all adoptions concern a child from another country. International adoptions, often a difficult and expensive process for the prospective parents, have been severely attacked on the grounds that they have led to the development of an international baby market. Edwige Rude-Antoine examines the truth of this accusation. She addresses several questions: What is the motivation of the prospective parents ? How have different governments dealt with the rising demand for adoptions ? What legal procedures have they implemented, and what effect have they had ? How does an adoption case actually unfold ? The author goes beyond an examination of the legal and procedural differences that can be found around the world. She explores the emotions of the adopted children: Do they feel the need to look for their biological family ? Do they try to preserve any vestiges of their own ethnic and cultural origins ? And if they do, how do they go about it ? How do they develop their own identity ? This book will be a useful tool for both childcare professionals and adoptive parents.Edwige Rude-Antoine, a lawyer and sociologist, heads a research team at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (URMIS, University of Paris-VII and Paris-VIII). She is the author of Des Vies et des Familles. Les I'migrés. la Loi et les Coutumes.

La baisse du nombre d'enfants adoptables dans les pays développés et l'augmentation du nombre des demandes expliquent que, désormais, les deux tiers des adoptions soient internationales. Parcours du combattant pour les parents, ce processus suscite les représentations les plus contrastées, au point que l'on parle parfois de véritable "marché planétaire". Qu'en est-il vraiment ? Quelles sont les motivations des parents ? Comment les différents États répondent-ils à la demande ? Comment cela se passe-t-il concrètement? Par-delà l'analyse des aspects juridiques et des procédures à travers le monde, Edwige Rude-Antoine propose une réflexion sur ce qu'éprouvent les adoptés eux-mêmes. Ressentent-ils le besoin de renouer avec leur famille d'origine ? Comment conservent-ils la trace de leur histoire familiale, culturelle et ethnique, et comment construisent-ils leur identité ? Un instrument d'information et de réflexion indispensable, aussi bien pour les parents qui adoptent que pour les professionnels de l'enfance. Docteur en droit, sociologue, Edwige Rude-Antoine est chargée de recherche au CNRS.
