Abstract

Abstract:This paper explores the process of transition into adulthood from the foster care system in Poland in the context of the legal and institutional regulations shaping early adulthood. Despite the paradigm shift and the rule of moving away from institutional forms of foster care towards a diverse range of family based forms of care, the transition to adulthood from foster care is still highly institutionalised in Poland. The paper explains how the state, through its legal and institutional means, shapes biographies of care leavers towards the form of adulthood understood as the stage of reaching economic autonomy and starting a family. The paper draws on original qualitative research conducted with care leavers in Poland which was part of the Public policies for completed adulthood. The case of Poland project, which was conducted in 2015–2020 and funded by the Polish National Science Centre (NCN). The results show that the transition from care to adulthood is both accelerated and compressed and is perceived as rapid and chaotic by care leavers, and that the abrupt withdrawal of support makes the Polish care system less effective.
波兰从寄养到成年的过渡
摘要:本文探讨了在波兰的法律和制度法规的背景下,从寄养系统过渡到成年的过程。尽管模式发生了转变,并且从机构形式的寄养转向以家庭为基础的各种形式的寄养,但在波兰,从寄养向成年的过渡仍然高度制度化。本文解释了国家如何通过其法律和制度手段,塑造照顾离开者的传记,使其走向被理解为达到经济自主和组建家庭的阶段。本文借鉴了对波兰的护理离开者进行的原始定性研究,这是完成成年期公共政策的一部分。波兰项目的案例,该项目于2015-2020年进行,由波兰国家科学中心(NCN)资助。结果表明,从护理到成年的过渡既加速又压缩,并且被护理离开者认为是快速和混乱的,并且突然撤回支持使波兰护理系统效率降低。
