Abstract

Discerning the CRC perspective of international child abduction and the 1980 Hague Convention requires a constructive approach. This is because there is no clear statement, such as a General Comment, that presents an official position. After a review of the scholarly literature, the chapter then moves on to analyse the CRC Committee’s jurisprudence relevant to the Convention from concluding observations to State parties, relevant General Comments, and decisions adopted under the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on a Communications Procedure (OPIC). From these sources, the chapter constructs the current ‘CRC perspective’ on international child abduction and the 1980 Hague Convention. The conclusion evaluates factors that may shape future directions in the CRC perspective on the Convention.
