Publisher's Synopsis

The balance between civil liberties and national security is scrutinized in this, the first comprehensive course book ever published to critically explore the legal, ethical, and social ramifications of the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II and the successful reparations movement of the 1980s.

The book features:

  • an outstanding author team - all are noted scholars in this and other fields of law
  • a rich pedagogy that includes thematic overviews, socio-historic background, in-depth study modules, cases, original documents and photographs, questions, and commentary
  • an interdisciplinary approach that includes scholarship from sociology and history as well as law review articles and cases
  • a discussion of how areas of law construct race and how political and social contexts shape and influence the law
  • issues of tremendous contemporary significance - such as the treatment of Arab-Americans during wartime and the prosecution of Chinese-American scientist Wen Ho Lee for espionage
  • analysis of the impact of Japanese-American redress on African-American reparations claims

    A Teacher's Manual that includes:

  • guidance for teaching each chapter
  • suggestions for how to make optimal use of study manuals
  • explanations and analysis that address questions raised in the book
