Japanese Exclusion Act

Japanese: 排日移民法 - はいにちいみんほう
Japanese Exclusion Act
The US quota law of 1924. In the 1907 Japan-US Gentlemen's Agreement, Japan promised to voluntarily limit immigration to the US, but the US government continued to express dissatisfaction with the effectiveness of this agreement, and anti-Japanese movements in California intensified (the Anti-Japanese Land Law). In 1922, the US Supreme Court denied the right of naturalization for Japanese people, and in 1924 the Japanese Exclusion Act was enacted, completely banning Japanese immigration. It was repealed in 1965 after World War II.

1924年制定の米国の割当移民法。1907年の日米紳士協約で日本は対米移民を自発的に制限することを約束したが,その後も米国政府はこの協約の実効について不満をのべカリフォルニアの排日運動も激化した(排日土地法)。1922年米国最高裁は日本人の帰化権を否認,1924年排日移民法を制定して日本人の移民を完全に禁止した。第2次大戦後の1965年に撤廃された。
