America's War on Same-Sex Couples and Their Families is a legal,
political, and social history of constitutional amendments in
twenty American states (with 43 percent of the nation's population)
that prohibited government recognition of all forms of relationship
rights (marriage, civil unions, and domestic partnerships) for
same-sex couples. Based on 175 interviews with gay and lesbian
pairs in Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio, Texas, and
Wisconsin, the volume has great human-interest value and chronicles
how same-sex couples and their children coped within harsh legal
environments. The work ends with a lively explanation of how the
federal judiciary rescued these families from their own
governments. In addition, the book provides a model of the
grassroots circumstances under which harassed minority groups
migrate out of oppressive state regimes, together with an estimate
of the economic and other costs (to the refugees and their
governments) of the flight from persecution.
