Problèmes actuels de reconnaissance de la kafala marocaine auprès des autorités espagnoles

Abstract

Kafala is an institution with a significant religious component. This is not only a matter of care and maintenance a child, but also to educating him/her in the Muslim Religion. Failure to comply with this requirement has motivated the Moroccan Government reaction vetoing to foreign non resident in Morocco the possibility of setting a kafala. Despite this prohibition, the Moroccan kafala still poses problems to the Spanish authorities. The object of the present work is, so, to analyze such problems.
