It is divided into three parts and addresses both the conceptual foundations and the practical aspects of child protection, focusing on the legal framework, institutional care, foster care systems and preventive services. The book provides the reader with an insight into the ways in which child protection policy in Türkiye has been shaped by social, political and historical factors. It offers both a national perspective and an analysis of how Turkish policy conforms to international standards for children's rights and welfare.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is particularly relevant at a time when child protection issues are gaining attention worldwide, especially with regard to global challenges such as migration, socio-economic inequalities and the need for improved protection of children's rights. It provides not only an academic analysis of the Turkish child protection system, but it also serves as a practical guide for policy makers, social workers, educators and NGOs working in this field. With its in-depth focus on the Turkish context, this book fills a gap in international scholarship on child protection systems in non-Western countries, making it an important resource for a global audience interested in comparative child protection models.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eChild Protection and Care Systems in Türkiye\u003c\/em\u003e is aimed primarily at academics and researchers specialising in child welfare, social work and human rights, as well as practitioners concerned with the protection and care of children in Türkiye and beyond. The combination of theoretical and practical approaches makes the book valuable not only for those studying child protection systems, but also for professionals, including policy makers, social workers, NGO professionals, and legal experts, who want to understand the intricacies of implementing child protection measures in practise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOzan Selçuk, PhD\u003c\/strong\u003e is an Associate Professor in the Department of Social Work at Recep Tayyip Erdoğan University, Türkiye.
