Suspect Families cover

This book outlines the European framework of family reunification and the reasons for focussing on Austria, Finland and Germany. It presents the case studies that provide a general understanding of how DNA testing affects the national immigration policies.

’Suspect Families is a timely and thoughtful analysis of the uses of DNA testing in contemporary immigration policy in Europe. The book not only offers a valuable comparative perspective, but also raises serious ethical concerns and theoretical issues about our understanding of identity, family and citizenship. It should be a work of reference for anyone working on these important and fascinating topics.’ Katja Franko Aas, University of Oslo, Norway
