Description
Summary:This article presents the state of the art on the phenomenon of child neglect, which despite being a great magnitude and importance problem due to its impact on children, it has not been studied as much as other types of abuse. By investigating and checking backgrounds regarding this issue, three trends were found: a social-historical which studies neglect in a historical context and the social and discursive aspects that have been related with it, which also includes the historical, sociological or anthropological studies. A second trend is formed by the investigations that have focused on the phenomenon with an objectivist perspective. These studies have sought to measure the frequency of the variables that influence the etiology of neglect and/or the impacts it generates in children. Finally, a trend that is formed by the works that analyze meanings, concepts or positions towards abandonment, emphasizing on the subject and in his speech, as well as in the Institutions for protection has been found.
