- Abstract
As Izumi observes in her "Acknowledgements" at the end of the book, "The political and moral polarization between those who defend civil liberties and those who prioritize national and internal security seems to intensify around the world year after year. The Rise and Fall of America's Concentration Camps Law: Civil Liberties Debates from the Internment to McCarthyism and the Radical 1960s By Izumi, Masumi. Indeed, the concentration camp theme mainly provides a topical frame for a revision of Izumi's dissertation, "Japanese American Internment and the Emergency Detention Act (Title II of the Internal Security Act of 1950), 1941-1971: Balancing Internal Security and Civil Liberties in the United States.".
