This lecture video is about a landmark 1944 US Supreme Court case upholding the exclusion of Japanese Americans, Korematsu v. United States, 323 U.S. 214. First, I discuss the majority opinion, authored by Justice Black, which focuses mainly on whether the court should apply strict scrutiny when assess-sing Exclusion Order #34. Then there are in-depth readings of passages from two of the dissenting opinions, authored by Justices Roberts and Murphy. Roberts focuses on the fact that there was another relevant order, Proclamation 4, which combined with Exclusion Order #34 to make it such that Japanese Americans were forced into concentration camps solely because of their race or ancestry. Murphy simply focuses on how racial orders are unreasonable. This lecture is part of a broader Philosophy of Law course, in which we read several chapters of HLA Hart's The Concept of Law.
