International child abduction occurs when one parent wrongfully
(i.e. in breach of the parental responsibility of the other parent)
takes a child to a country other than that of the child's habitual
residence, or wrongfully keeps a child in such a country. The
author of this work was part of a research team that conducted a
study, partially funded by the European Commission, to examine this
problem in Belgium and Hungary, analyzing cases from 2007 and 2008
and interviewing the affected parents. This book is a revised
version of the Belgian research report, which sets the problem of
child abduction within its international context. It looks at the
families in which abductions took place, how preparations were made
for an abduction, the quest for the return of the child (including
legal proceedings), and the aftermath of the abductions. Throughout
the book, the results of the quantitative and qualitative data are
explained. What emerges is that when a child is abducted, the
solutions offered by the law are often inadequate. Family conflict
is a complex societal issue, and child abduction is a severe form
of family conflict. Rather than responding to child abduction with
strict and contentious legal proceedings, the book argues that
solutions based on respect, psychological assistance, and a search
for consensus should be favored. (Series: Studies in Private
