• Resumen

  • Jessaca Leinaweaver’s Adoptive Migration is a rich and insightful studyof the complex dynamics surrounding Peruvian adoption and migration inSpain that builds upon and extends the insights from her previous book, TheCirculation of Children: Kinship, Adoption, and Morality in Andean Peru. Thenovelty of Leinaweaver’s approach lies in the comparison she draws between theseemingly incongruous phenomena of international adoption and transnationalmigration. Through juxtaposing adoption and migration, Leinaweaver providesa fresh perspective on each process and brings disparate scholarly literaturesinto productive dialogue.
