Abstract

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.
