Born into Care
Available open access under CC-BY-NC-ND licence.
Born into Care is a ground-breaking international collection that brings together leading scholars, practitioners, advocates, and mothers with lived experience to confront the hidden and deeply controversial practice of infant removal at birth.
As the first book of its kind, it delivers a powerful critique of the legal, ethical, and political systems that perpetuate a practice disproportionately impacting marginalised families. Topics covered in the book include decision-making at birth, human rights and access to justice, and the intersecting inequities of class, gender, racism, and ableism.
Through rigorous analysis and diverse perspectives, the collection challenges dominant child protection narratives and lays the groundwork for systemic transformation.
