Bartholet, E. (1993). International Adoption: Current Status and Future Prospects. In The Future of Children, Adoption, Vol. 3, No. 1, Spring 1993. 15 p.

The laws regulating adoption are varied among the “sending” countries and numerous obstacles stand in the way of foreigners who wish to adopt. Declarations by the United Nations in recent years and current progress toward the completion of “Convention on Intercountry Adoption” by the Hague Conference on private international law offer some hope for facilitating this process".
