In Canada, descendants of Chinese immigrants recently claimed the return of a head tax levied only on Chinese immigrants. Calling Power to Account uses the litigation around the Chinese Canadian head tax as a focal point for examining the historical, legal, and philosophical issues raised by such claims." "Calling Power to Account suggest that our legal systems can hope to play a part in responding to their own legacy of past injustice only when they recognize the full array of issues posed by the head tax case."--Jacket. 606 $aChinese$xLegal status, laws, etc$xHistory$vCongresses 606 $aReparations for historical injustices$zCanada$vCongresses 606 $aChinese$xTaxation$xLaw and legislation$zCanada$xHistory$vCongresses 606 $aRace discrimination$xLaw and legislation$zCanada$xHistory$vCongresses 606 $aEmigration and immigration law$zCanada$xHistory$vCongresses 607 $aReparations for historical injustices$zCanada$vCongresses 608 $aHistory. 608 $aConference papers and proceedings. 610 $aChinese Canadians 615 0$aChinese$xLegal status, laws, etc.$xHistory 615 0$aReparations for historical injustices 615 0$aChinese$xTaxation$xLaw and legislation$xHistory 615 0$aRace discrimination$xLaw and legislation$xHistory 615 0$aEmigration and immigration law$xHistory 676 $a342.7108/73 701 $aDyzenhaus$b David$0612287 702 $aMoran$b Mayo$f1960- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812903203321 996 $aCalling power to account$94089738 997 $aUNINA
