Exploring the historical significance of family reunification in U.S. immigration law, the book examines how concepts of family influence national identity and immigration policies. It highlights the persistence of family unity provisions even in restrictive laws like the Chinese Exclusion Act and discusses how post-war debates shaped the 1965 Immigration Act. By focusing on familial relationships rather than just individuals or ethnic groups, it reveals how discussions around family can both support and constrain broader immigration narratives and American identity.
