Up-to-date findings from a wide range of developing and developed countries identify forms of abuse and neglect associated with institutionalization and their effects on development and pathology in younger children, adolescents, and alumni. The sections on intervention strategies highlight the often-conflicting objectives facing professionals and policymakers balancing the interests of children, families, and facilities. But despite many national and regional variations, two themes stand out: the universal right of children to live in safety, and the ongoing need for professionals and community to ensure this safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluded among the topics:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaltreatment and living conditions in long-term residential institutions for children\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutcomes from institutional rearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommendations to improve institutional living\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistorical, political, socio-economic, and cultural influences on Child Welfare Systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLatin American and the Caribbean, African, Asian, Middle-Eastern, Western and Eastern European countries and the United States of America are presented.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eChild Maltreatment in Residential Care\u003c\/i\u003e will inform psychology professionals interested in the role of residential care in the lives of children, and possibilities for improved outcomes. It will also interest social workers and mental health practitioners and researchers seeking evidence-based interventions for families adopting children from residential care.           \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2018-08-12\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319862972\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-57990-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 527\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47525351358604,"sku":"9783319862972","price":116.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319862972.jpg?v=1776024052","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783319862972","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
