Children of Reunion: Vietnamese Adoptions and the Politics of Family Migrations
Allison Varzally
In 1961, the US government established the first formalized provisions for intercountry adoption just as it was expanding America's involvement with Vietnam. As Allison Varzally details in this book, a desire to redeem defeat in Vietnam, faith in the nuclear family, and commitment to capitalism guided American efforts on behalf of Vietnamese youths.
