Résumé
The Adoption Plan offers a new history of the rise of global humanitarianism that places the recipients, administrators, and critics of humanitarian aid in China at the center of the story.
During the tumultuous years of World War II and the Cold War, new global humanitarian ideas and practices coalesced around the cause of saving the children in China. How did China’s children become archetypal victims who ignited a new global humanitarian imagination? And who would prevail in the transnational contest to control the vast quantities of aid flowing into China on their behalf?
The Adoption Plan offers a new history of the rise of global humanitarianism that places the recipients, administrators, and critics of humanitarian aid in China at the center of the story. Analyzing how the “adoption plan” for international child sponsorship became one of the most popular fundraising strategies for humanitarian work in China and across the world, Jack Neubauer explores how the globalization of humanitarian aid was linked to new practices of global intimacy that enabled donors to build personal relationships with Chinese children across geographic and cultural divides. Drawing on hundreds of letters written by Chinese children to foreign sponsors and extensive research in Chinese archives, Neubauer shows how China’s Nationalist and Communist parties mobilized the emotional bonds between children and sponsors to secure international support for their competing political projects. By the 1950s, child sponsorship and international adoption had become the most hotly contested humanitarian programs in Cold War East Asia.
Upending the conventional view of humanitarianism as a tool of Western influence, The Adoption Plan demonstrates that it was often the Chinese recipients of aid who were best able to control its material and ideological uses.
