This book deals with the implementation of the rights of the child
as enshrined in the Convention on the Rights of the Child in 21
countries from Europe, Asia, Australia, and the USA. It gives an
overview of the legal status of children regarding their most
salient rights, such as the implementation of the best interest
principle, the right of the child to know about of his/her origin,
the right to be heard, to give medical consent, the right of the
child in the field of employment, religious education of children,
prohibition of physical punishment, protection of the child through
deprivation of parental rights and in the case of inter-country
adoption. In the last 25 years since the Convention on the Rights
of the Child was adopted, many States Parties to the Convention
have made great efforts to pass legislation regulating the rights
of the child, in their commitment to the improvement of the legal
status of the child. However, is that enough for any child to live
better, safer, and healthier? What are the practical effects of
this international as well as many national instruments in the
everyday life of children? Have there been any outcomes in terms of
improvement of their status around the world, and improvement of
the conditions under which they live, since the Convention entered
into force? In tackling these questions, this work presents a
comparative overview of the implementation of the Convention, and
evaluates the results achieved.
