Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Second Printing. 257 Pages Indexed. There is some underlining on the early pages up to page one. Text pages after page one are near flawless. In 1982, a congressional commission concluded that the incarceration of 120,000 Americans of Japanese ancestry during World War II resulted from racism, war hysteria, and failed political leadership. Against long odds, the commission's recommendation that the U.S. government offer financial redress became law on August 10, 1988, when President Reagan signed the Civil Liberties Act. This book is a case study of the political, institutional, and external factors that led to the passage of this controversial legislation. Based on extensive interviews with Senators, members of Congress, key members of their staffs, and lobbyists, as well as statistical analyses of roll call votes, this book provides a uniquely rich account of the passage of a federal law.

Six months later, the commission recommended that the U.S. government offer a national apology and payment of $20,000 each to the surviving internees or their immediate heirs as form of redress. Against long odds, these recommendations became law on August 10, 1988 when President Regan signed the Civil Liberties Act of 1988.
