It is very clear that children in every country experience abuse
and neglect. The descriptions of the child welfare systems in
different countries in this book illustrate several common themes:
the lack of clear definitions, ambiguous policies, laws not being
implemented, limited data on the extent and nature of the problem,
and inadequate resources for addressing child maltreatment.
Challenges facing Argentina are remarkably familiar to someone in
the United States. At the same time, there are also striking
differences in approaches and resources. The field of child
protection is relatively young; in many areas optimal policies and
practice remain uncertain. This book promotes dialogue across
borders to learn from each other and advance this multifaceted
field, and to better serve children and families. This book
highlights some of the main themes evident in the descriptions of
the different child welfare systems.
