Produktbeschreibung
THIS STUDY is an assessment of one major aspect of the adjustment of Japanese Americans to the series of events comprising their removal from the communities of the Pacific Coast early in World War II, their sequestration in temporary centers under governmental control, and their eventual release. It is in a sense an "e;impact"e; study in that attention is directed toward the effects administrative policies had on family groups and the resources these groups commanded to adapt to and ameliorate the conditions imposed upon them.The preoccupation of the present study is easily justified. The importance of the family, in Japan as well as in the organization of the Japanese communities in the United States, makes this aspect of the social organization of the minority group a major concern for a rounded understanding of the evacuation. The relevance of the family as the unit of study is also indicated by the administrative policy which explicitly directed that family units be maintained in the processing of the population through the evacuation and relocation programs.

Autorenporträt
LEONARD BROOM (BS, Phi Beta Kappa, 1933; AM 1934) (1911-2009) was one of the first sociologists to join the faculty at UCLA, where he served from 1941 through 1959. During that period, he received a Guggenheim Fellowship, served as editor of the American Sociological Review, and co-authored (with Phillip Selznick) one of the first sociology textbooks¿a classic that remained the dominant text in the field for nearly 40 years. He subsequently served on the faculty at the University of Texas, where he founded the Population Research Center, and at the Australian National University. Throughout his career, he focused on questions of inequality, as well as on the treatment of minority and aboriginal peoples. He passed away in 2009 at the age of 98. JOHN ITSURO KITSUSE (1923-2003) was an American professor of sociology who contributed to the sociology of social problems, criminology and deviance. Kitsuse is famous for his pioneer work in studying social problems as social constructions. From 1977 until his death, Kitsuse and his colleague Malcolm Spector published some of their research in this field in their book Constructing Social Problems. As a second generation Japanese American, Kitsuse was imprisoned in an American internment camp from 1942-1943, due to the ongoing war between the United States and Japan.
