International Parental Child Abduction and the Law

This book examines why Japan has faced scrutiny for failing to properly address international parental child abduction involving its citizens, its response, and how it might manage these disputes in the future. Through the use of case studies, it explores how Japan engages with international legal frameworks to manage the issue.
