The most prolific of these changes can be seen within contact arrangements, particularly those that are not managed by an intermediary, between adopted minors and their biological kin. Within this shift, it becomes clear that this often-breached contact arrangement lends itself towards discussions about further openness within adoption. At the same time these technologies continue to document the way adopted individuals and their biological kin feel about themselves and each other. It is for these reasons that the Internet remains both a promise and threat. Samuels explores this in detail, highlighting that what it means to be adopted continues to evolve in the context of networked media cultures. Combining both theoretical discussions with the human experience of adoption, Adoption in the Digital Age will be of interest to students and scholars across a range of disciplines, including sociology, social work and cultural studies, as well as practitioners working with adoptive families and other members of the adoption triad connected and disconnected by adoption. 001359373 650_0 $$aSocial sciences. 001359373 650_0 $$aSocial service. 001359373 650_0 $$aMass media. 001359373 650_0 $$aCommunication. 001359373 650_0 $$aSocial sciences in mass media. 001359373 650_0 $$aSocial policy. 001359373 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001359373 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319704128 001359373 830_0 $$aPalgrave pivot. 001359373 852__ $$bebk 001359373 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-70413-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001359373 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1359373$$pGLOBAL_SET 001359373 980__ $$aBIB 001359373 980__ $$aEBOOK 001359373 982__ $$aEbook 001359373 983__ $$aOnline 001359373 994__ $$a92$$bISE
