"Jaladoras, Criminality, and Consent in Private Adoptions, 1977-1987"
a talk by Rachel Nolan, CSER Postdoctoral Fellow, Columbia University March 5, 2019, 7:10-9pm,聽Columbia University Faculty House (64 Morningside Drive) In 1977, the Guatemalan Congress voted to privatize adoptions, opening the door for a massive commercial international adoption boom. Guatemalan lawyers stood to make between US$15,000 and US$45,000 per adopted child, enormous sums in a poor country. Poor and often indigenous women began working as jaladoras (baby brokers), sourcing adoptable children for lawyers for a fee. Drawing on police reports, court records, adoption files, and oral histories with adoption lawyers鈥攊ncluding a series of jailhouse interviews with Susana Luarca, the only lawyer ever sentenced for child trafficking for adoption in Guatemala鈥擨 show that jaladoras sought out children who could be parted from their birth mothers through consent, coercion, and sometimes outright theft. 聽
