These brides began to appear en masse after World War I, peaked after World War II, and persisted through the Korean and Vietnam Wars. GIs also met and married former ?enemy? women under conditions of postwar occupation, although at times the US government banned such unions.In this comprehensive, complex history of war brides in 20th-century American history, Susan Zeiger uses relationships between American male soldiers and foreign women as a lens to view larger issues of sexuality, race, and gender in United States foreign relations. Entangling Alliances draws on a rich array of sources to trace how war and postwar anxieties about power and national identity have long been projected onto war brides, and how these anxieties translate into public policies, particularly immigration. 606 $aIntercountry marriage$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aMilitary spouses$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aSoldiers$xFamily relationships$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aSoldiers$xSexual behavior$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aWar brides$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xHistory, Military$y20th century 610 $a20th-century. 610 $aAlliances. 610 $aAmerican. 610 $aEntangling. 610 $aStates. 610 $aSusan. 610 $aUnited. 610 $aZeiger. 610 $aabout. 610 $aanxieties. 610 $aarray. 610 $abeen. 610 $abetween. 610 $abrides. 610 $acomplex. 610 $acomprehensive. 610 $adraws. 610 $aforeign. 610 $agender. 610 $ahave. 610 $ahistory. 610 $aidentity. 610 $aimmigration. 610 $ainto. 610 $aissues. 610 $alarger. 610 $alens. 610 $along. 610 $amale. 610 $anational. 610 $aonto. 610 $aparticularly. 610 $apolicies. 610 $apostwar. 610 $apower. 610 $aprojected. 610 $apublic. 610 $arace. 610 $arelations. 610 $arelationships. 610 $arich. 610 $asexuality. 610 $asoldiers. 610 $asources. 610 $athese. 610 $athis. 610 $atrace. 610 $atranslate. 610 $auses. 610 $aview. 610 $awomen. 615 0$aIntercountry marriage$xHistory 615 0$aMilitary spouses$xHistory 615 0$aSoldiers$xFamily relationships$xHistory 615 0$aSoldiers$xSexual behavior$xHistory 615 0$aWar brides$xHistory 676 $a306.808835500973 700 $aZeiger$b Susan$f1959-$01513553 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791654703321 996 $aEntangling alliances$93748119 997 $aUNINA
