Synopsis
Oriental Bodies charts the discursive transformations of U.S. immigration policy between 1875 and 1942. Drawing from American foreign policy, identity politics, post-structuralism, post-colonialism, and feminist theory, this fascinating study seeks to examine the construction of _Oriental bodies_ within the emergence of U.S. immigration policy and explores how these constructions served political, social, and economic interests.
