Closing the Gate: Race, Politics, and the Chinese Exclusion Act
(Bog, Paperback / softback, Engelsk)
Beskrivelse
The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 barred nearly all Chinese from US shores for ten years. Gyory traces the origins of the Act, contending that rather than confronting divisive problems such as class conflict, politicians sought a safe, non-ideological solution to the nation's industrial crisis.
