註釋Extensively revised to include new and expanded coverage on current and central issues, this Third Edition of CHILD, FAMILY AND STATE builds on the success of its influential predecessors, which have shaped the way this field is viewed today. In a concise yet comprehensive manner, these expert authors provide an analytical framework for examining the full range of legal questions relevant to children. They efficiently cover this rapidly moving and unsettled field-focusing on the legal distribution of power and responsibility for children among the child, The family And The state, and how such power should be allocated. Mnooking and Weisburg address government benefits, child abuse and neglect, medical treatment of children, custody law, state-enforced limitations on the liberty of minors, and juvenile delinquency. At the heart of each of this book's seven chapters are questions and problems that spark classroom discussion and stimulate student thought. New topical coverage includes: school voucher, coporal punishment, minors; access to sexually explicit materials (e.g., movies, video games, music), children and AIDS, and paternity establishment. the authors have also thoroughly updated this casebook to provide the latest developments on : abortion, including the 1992 Casey case; governmant benefits to minors (AFDC, Medicare, etc.); child abuse registries (Valmonte v. Bane); foster care, including Artist M v. Suter; custody, with changes in the primary caretaker presumption; adoption, including the Baby Jessica case and unwed fathers' rights; and child support. This book's teachability is further enhanced by its flexibility; it can easily be tailored to suit your coverage needs.
