Summary/Abstract: The paper presents the legal bases for adoption and the threat for children whose parents do not want or cannot bring them up. It also discusses possible ways of fighting the violation of minors’ rights. For the common benefit, the policy of cooperation among different institutions was implemented, which were specially founded to guard the legal order. However, in times of globalization, the action taken by a single country would not be sufficient. Thus, the cooperation among the other countries has become indispensable. The legal basis for this, ratified at the beginning of the 20th century, are international agreements, commonly worked-out legislation and relevant procedures, which can be effective in the battle against the violation of the basic human rights, especially those of the children.
