Resumo

Since the 80´s, the 1980 Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of Child Abduction, a multilateral treaty that, despite of using an alleged neutral and gender-unaware language, ends up by striking negatively a relevant number of women-mothers. Although the initial negotiation scenario of this treaty pointed to a higher number of male abductors, this has changed over the years and, nowadays, mothers perpetrate the highest number of abductions. Thus, the present study aims to engage on a critical debate about countries´ efforts to defend their nationals, men-fathers, against the illicit removal of children from their territories, applying the methodological approach offered by feminist theories which challenge notions of objectivity and gender neutrality in the field of Law, especially at the realms of the 1980 Hague Convention.
