Few historians of the Vietnam War have covered the post-1975 era or
engaged comprehensively with refugee politics, humanitarianism, and
human rights as defining issues of the period. After Saigon's Fall
is the first major work to uncover this history. Amanda C. Demmer
offers a new account of the post-War normalization of US-Vietnam
relations by centering three major transformations of the late
twentieth century: the reassertion of the US Congress in American
foreign policy; the Indochinese diaspora and changing domestic and
international refugee norms; and the intertwining of
humanitarianism and the human rights movement. By tracing these
domestic, regional, and global phenomena, After Saigon's Fall
captures the contingencies and contradictions inherent in
US-Vietnamese normalization. Using previously untapped archives to
recover a riveting narrative with both policymakers and nonstate
advocates at its center, Demmer's book also reveals much about US
politics and society in the last quarter of the twentieth century.
