In Russia, institutional care is the most widespread with this type of child care placement representing 98 per cent of all out-of- home care facilities for children after kinship care (Groark et al., 2008; Human Rights Watch, 1998).

This volume represents the collaborative efforts between students and CSU, Chico’s dedicated faculty. The papers presented here are a small sampling of the student work done at Chico, but they highlight the diversity and the value of historical inquiry. For many of the authors in this volume seeing their work published is a new experience, while others are a familiar name to this journal. In either case, their work is appreciated and it is both my honor and that of this year’s editorial board, to highlight their writing. This volume was made possible through the continued enthusiasm and support for student work on the behalf of the entire history department. I would also like to specifically thank Dr. Stephen Lewis for his advice and support throughout this process. Dr. Laird Easton for his dedication to The Chico Historian. Dr. Jason Nice and Dr. Jessica Clark for their constant support to students. Professor John Boyle for his continuing support. Claudia Beaty for the million little things she has done to assist this journal. Finally, I would like to thank my editorial board for their hard work throughout this semester.

Ryan* Abstract: International adoption is a common occurrence in today’s so- ciety. In order to address the dangers linked with international adoption such as baby trafªcking, the members of the Hague Conference on Pri- vate International Law produced the Hague Convention on Intercountry Adoption in 1993, setting forth a minimum base of standards that every ratifying government must abide by, placing the best interests of the child above all other considerations.

  • Center for Adoption Policy the European Union and International
    Center for Adoption Policy The European Union and International Adoption Maarten Pereboom, Salisbury University Adoption – legally taking an individual born to others as one’s own child – dates back to ancient times, though the practice has changed significantly over time and is not common to all cultures. In recent times adoption has become an international phenomenon that tests both precepts about universal human rights and the interface of different legal customs and systems. In Europe, where traditions also vary from country to country, intercountry adoption has become entangled in the complicated process by which countries accede to the European Union, the supranational organization of states forming the world’s largest single market. While Europe explicitly proclaims the rights of children among its extensive list of human rights, the welfare of abandoned children remains caught between the imperatives of, on the one hand, helping as many children as possible, and, on the other, ensuring that best practices are followed, protecting the child and respecting the laws of all states involved – making the process lengthy, cumbersome and expensive. In 2004, under pressure from the European Union to which it hopes to accede in 2007, Romania banned adoption by foreigners of Romanian children. The law, which took effect in 2005, aimed to crack down on the corruption that existed in a highly flawed system, but in doing so it consigned thousands of children to years of institutional life. For families hoping to adopt one or more of these children, the situation reveals a terrible void between European human rights declarations and enforceable national laws that actually ensure the welfare of children.

  • Behavioral and Neural Effects of Reasoning Training by Allyson Mackey Doctor of Philosophy in Neuroscience University of California, Berkeley
    Behavioral and Neural Effects of Reasoning Training by Allyson Mackey A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Neuroscience in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee: Professor Silvia A. Bunge, Ph.D. (Chair) Professor Robert T. Knight, M.D. Professor Sonia J. Bishop, Ph.D. Professor Susan I. Stone, Ph.D. Fall 2012 Abstract Behavioral and Neural Effects of Reasoning Training by Allyson Mackey Doctor of Philosophy in Neuroscience University of California, Berkeley Professor Silvia A. Bunge, Ph.D., Chair My thesis research has focused broadly on how the environment shapes the structure and function of prefrontal cortex, for better or worse. I am interested in understanding in how experience-dependent plasticity can be harnessed to boost, or in some cases, remediate prefrontal function. I focused on training reasoning, the ability to solve novel problems, for two reasons: 1) reasoning is highly predictive of academic outcomes, and 2) reasoning was originally conceptualized as a fixed trait, and many people, both in science and in the general public, still believe that reasoning is set in stone. I conducted two studies, one in children and one in adults, to test the predictions that reasoning ability is malleable, and that repeated practice with reasoning problems strengthens connectivity within the frontoparietal network that supports high-level cognition. In my first study, children from low socioeconomic status backgrounds participated in 8 weeks of training with computerized and non-computerized games that targeted either reasoning ability or cognitive speed. Training led to dissociable behavioral outcomes: children in the reasoning training group improved substantially on a matrix reasoning test, while children in the speed training group improved specifically on a measure of cognitive speed.

  • A Stormy Night in Bucharest Copy
    A Stormy Night in Bucharest Angela’s Story by Bob Mardock A Stormy Night in Bucharest Angela’s Story By Bob Mardock Copyright – May 2012 Round Rock, Texas [email protected] A Stormy Night in Bucharest An adage says that God protects fools and children. Perhaps in our case we qualified for the first category on behalf of the second. I will explain. By the year 2000 International Family Services would have assisted with more than 1000 adoptions from Romania, Russia, China, Vietnam, India, Bulgaria, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala, but in March of 1991 IFS was little more than a dream, and my wife Carol and I were “innocents abroad,” on our way to post-Ceausescu Romania to see for ourselves if the horror stories about the conditions of orphans were true, and, perhaps, add another member to our family. I suppose my portrayal as total novices is not quite accurate since by this time we already had adopted Marcie from Korea, and both Carol and I had been overseas. But we had never been to dark and stormy Bucharest, and certainly not at night with no hotel reservations. I remember the feeling of vulnerability for me and my money belt. Our story begins in the fall of 1990 with the late night TV news show 20/20. Reporter Tom Jerrel had just returned from Romania with the horrific expose on the tens of thousands of orphaned children who had been hidden away in dilapidated children’s homes throughout dictator Nicholi Ceausescu’s Romania. The Romanian revolution of 1989 had just pried open the despot’s doors so the world could begin to see the dark secrets of the evil attempt to create the new meaning of “working class” as orphanages overrun with children, wards of the state, were being warehoused to eventually become the human equivalent of worker drones, 2 A Stormy Night in Bucharest a kind of state-sponsored slavery.
