Content: This handbook describes the ways in which 50 countries from every continent, except Antarctica, have devised measures to protect children from maltreatment and exploitation. The text discusses the legislative responses, public administrative systems, and the social service networks that governments utilize to secure children's safety. Synthesizing data from across the world, the authors suggest a global typology of child protection systems for understanding the diversity of service responses.
