Excessive Loyalty: The Hearings of Civilian Internees in Wartime Hawai‘i
April 9, 12:00pm - 1:15pmMānoa Campus, Henke 325
Alan Rosenfeld is an Associate Professor of History and Chair of the Humanities Division at the University of Hawai‘i-West O‘ahu. His two major research thrusts include an examination of urban guerrillas and the Federal Republic's war on terror in 1970s West Germany, and martial law and civilian internment in wartime Hawai‘i. In both cases he explores the tension and negotiation between civil liberties and demands for security. His essay entitled "Neither Aliens Nor Enemies: The Hearings of 'German' and 'Italian' Internees in Wartime Hawai‘i" appeared in 2014 as part of a special issue in the journal Social Process, titled Breaking the Silence: Lessons of Democracy from the World War II Honouliuli Interment and POW Camp in Hawai‘i. This collection of articles amasses research from oral histories, archival collections, and field work to examine the archaeological, historical, sociological, political, psychological, and cultural aspects and impacts of World War II confinement in Honouliuli.
