Evangelische Offenheit im Interesse des Kindeswohls

Adoption als Thema der theologischen Ethik

  • Henning Theißen EMAIL logo

Abstract

This study explores the relevance which the adoption of children has gained in the German and in the English speaking theological ethical discourse (I) and proposes that a combination of normative and hermeneutical factors will contribute to an ethical assessment of adoption (II). A core objective of the study is to implement openness as a Protestant value into the practice of adoption placement. It is argued that theories of enablement serve as a theoretical framework for an ethics of adoption.
