{"product_id":"adoption-across-race-and-nation-silke-hackenesch-9780814258576","title":"Adoption Across Race and Nation: Us Histories and Legacies","description":"Legacies of (un)belonging have historical roots and resonate across quite different contexts of transracial and transnational adoption. In \u003ci\u003eAdoption across Race and Nation\u003c\/i\u003e activists, adoptees, and scholars across a range of fields--history, childhood studies, cultural anthropology, gender studies, social policy, and more--ask: What are the experiences of dual-heritage adoptees, and how have configurations of kinship, culture, and identity shaped their lives? How have transnationally and transracially adopted children approached their Americanness, their American whiteness, their American Blackness, their Asian Americanness? How do \"border crises\" turn \"adoptable children\" into revenue streams for countries, exposing the vulnerability of immigrant families of color? Offering case studies of post-World War II and Cold War adoptions of Black German and Black Korean children, \u003ci\u003eAdoption across Race and Nation\u003c\/i\u003e probes the intersections of race and nation as well as immigration and citizenship. It thus demonstrates that in the past as well as today, adoption, nation, and race continue to operate as relational categories with immediate effects on normative notions of family and kinship, belonging, the role of the state, and social welfare. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Contributors: Silke Hackenesch, Laura Briggs, Pamela Anne Quiroz, Eleana J.
