Abstract: National legislations throughout the world develop different approaches to adoption. These differences are determined by family traditions, religious conceptions, history, and social and political background. For instance, there are countries requiring that the race or/and religion of the adoptive parents be the same with those of the adopted child. Yet, the lawfulness of such restrictions has been recently strongly questioned. As a legal measure to protect the abandoned children, the adoption has a quite recent tradition in Europe. While the legislation of the child-oriented adoption had been introduced in the U.S.A. in the middle of the 19th century, some of these laws were adopted by European countries no sooner than decennials later. For example, the first law in Sweden – Swedish Adoption Act – was adopted in 1917, but it was only in 1959 that the child became lawful member of the adoptive family. In Germany, more precisely in the Federal Republic of Germany, the modern adoption laws were adopted only in 1977. | |||||||
