Open Secret:

Cash & COERCION in China's International Adoption Program
Picture
An excellent summary of the scandals and controversies relating to the China adoption program can be found in our 2014 article "Cash and Coercion in China's International Adoption Program," published by the Cumberland Law Review.  "The article describes three kinds of abuses: baby-buying programs at Chinese orphanages, 'confiscations' of children by population control officials, and 'education' programs in which orphanages falsify the ages and family situation of teenagers in order to make them paper eligible for intercountry adoption. The article questions the effectiveness of the Hague legal regimen for intercountry adoption, particularly in the context of China. A brief foreword by David Smolin places Brian Stuy's extensively-researched article about adoptions from China in a broader context."

The article can be downloaded for free here.
