Little work has been done to systematically analyze how high-profile incidents of child neglect and abuse shape child welfare policymaking in the United States.

A widespread conviction in the need to rescue China’s children took hold in the early twentieth century. Amid political upheaval and natural disasters, neglected or abandoned children became a humanitarian focal point for Sino-Western cooperation and intervention in family life.
