Managing Mobility in Early Modern Europe and its Empires

Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
This book examines how migration and mobility were controlled, supported, and restricted in early modern Europe and European colonies. The aim of the book is to investigate how different actors, such as rulers, regional lords, local authorities, and corporations tried to regulate different forms of mobility and how those on the move reacted to these attempts. The book examines the agency of both the authorities and the migrants, shifting focus between the macro and the micro level. The chapters will also illuminate the ways gender, religion, language, ethnicity, occupation, and socioeconomic status were entangled in the regulations concerning mobility. Control of migration is inextricably linked with power relations. In this book, mobility is seen as a wide social process, which covers daily or seasonal movement as well as less or more stable migration.

This book examines the experiences of refugees who populated the Displaced Persons (DP) camps in the British Zone of Allied-occupied Germany after the Second World War. With a specific focus on Polish and Jewish communities, it explores the interaction between migration policy and the migration strategy of refugees - or in other words – the relationship between DP policy and individual choices, and how these evolved over time. The book aims to harmonize often contradictory images of displaced persons in the British Zone of occupation by taking a comparative approach and analysing conflicting identifications and state-individual relations. Drawing on the records of the International Tracing Service, refugee memoirs, DP publications distributed in the camps themselves, and personal petitions and correspondences, the author sheds light on the experiences of displaced persons and illustrates the difficulty of making clear-cut distinctions between forced and voluntary migration. Today, as in the post-war period, refugees’ access to social rights and welfare, settlement rights, and the possibility of family reunification, can all be determined by the same labels that were so fiercely contested after 1945. A dichotomy between so-called ‘economic’ and ‘political’ migration endures, and many claims to asylum are today rejected on the grounds of applicants not being formally recognized as ‘genuine’ refugees and recipients of aid. This book therefore adds to our growing understanding of the plight of refugees and the need to ensure access to justice for all through the ongoing building of an effective, accountable, and inclusive refugee regime.
Managing Global Student Migration in the Twentieth Century
The Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris Experiment

This open-access book examines student migration in the twentieth century, focusing on the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris. Established in 1925 by the French government with support from a diverse coalition of international public and private actors, this campus was intended to host up to 10,000 students from various national backgrounds each year, thereby fostering French influence and promoting cross-cultural understanding. In this context, the book traces these students’ trajectories through major social and political movements of the century—such as anti-colonialism, communism, and feminism—from the interwar period to the globalization in the 2000s. It explores the varied backgrounds of students, including democratic elites, exiles fleeing military dictatorships, and students from developing nations.Through this analysis, the book illuminates the forces driving global student mobility and academic diplomacy, assessing the roles of governments, universities, and philanthropic organizations in shaping these efforts. Furthermore, it reveals the complex intersections of class, gender, and race within migrant student communities, for whom the Cité served as a nexus of exchange and cultural transfer. By using the Cité Internationale as a case study, this work offers a distinctive perspective on the global history of student mobility and transnational higher education.
Nationality and Naturalisation in Argentina
From Independence to Mid-Twentieth Century

Skickas inom 11-20 vardagar
This book examines nationality as a historical process, addressing state policies to welcome or restrict naturalizations, and individual strategies to obtain this legal status. The focus is on Argentina, the primary recipient of Atlantic migrations in independent Latin America until the mid-twentieth century, taking a global perspective. Based on an extensive corpus of documents, including unpublished archives, the study offers new insights into over a century of naturalization history in Argentina.The gendered approach to legal practices allows for innovative interrogation of archives, such as Argentine Supreme Court rulings. The exploration of well-established archives, like those in foreign relations, sheds light on previously unanalyzed phenomena, such as the existence of Argentine natives held in concentration camps in Spain during the Civil War.Structured into eight chapters, the book uses a historical-analytical framework to examine the evolution of nationality in Argentina from 1811 to the present. It traces the origins of citizenship from "natives of the Kingdom" to the development of a national doctrine, and covers global regulations of nationality policies and naturalizations during mass migrations from 1880 to 1930. The work also delves into gender perspectives and the political categorization of "undesirable Argentines."The research intersects various academic fields within the framework of the global shift in social sciences, exploring the impact of globalization on sovereignty, nationality, and citizenship. The findings contribute to migration history, international law history, citizenship studies, international relations history, and the formation of nation-states in post-colonial Latin America.

Flow and Flux: The Political History of Chinese Emigration to France, 1949–1990
A Case Study of Southern Zhejiang Migrant Communities
Inbunden, Engelska, 2026
1 418 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book examines the political circumstances of Chinese immigrants in France within a broader political climate. It explores how China’s top-down policy shifts and internal Communist partisan struggles since 1949 affected the overseas Chinese policies and the lives of Chinese immigrants in France. Illustrating the special emigration policy of a socialist country during the Mao era and the characteristic tug-of-war between the mainland and Taiwan over overseas Chinese in Europe, this work also identifies “windows of opportunity” during gaps in political campaigns when the Chinese government favoured its overseas citizens, challenging misconceptions about China’s overseas policies before 1978.Additionally, this book analyses migration waves after 1978, concluding that the Chinese government played a pivotal role in driving these migrations. It addresses how large-scale migration emerged after the Reform and Opening-up, especially after 1984, linking this to shifts in Communist Party policies, bureaucratic practices, factional struggles, and how the French and Chinese government deal with the illegal migration issue.Grounded in an exceptionally broad and rare set of source materials, this book draws from archives at seven research centres across mainland China, as well as collections from Academia Sinica in Taiwan, the French National Library, and French diplomatic archives. The author further enriches the analysis with first-hand interviews, including conversations with government officials, police officers, former human smugglers, and former overseas students involved in the Nationalist–Communist struggle. By leveraging these uncommon archival resources and unique personal accounts, the author tries to guide readers toward a more nuanced and multifaceted understanding of the forces shaping Chinese migration to France.
Family, Children and Migration during the 'Trente Glorieuses'
Clandestinity in Europe
Inbunden, Engelska, 2026

Kommande
This book provides a unique perspective on migration throughout Western Europe after the Second World War by exploring the complex histories of migrant children and families under the conditions of a restrictive migration regime. By historicising what ‘family’, ‘migration’, or ‘childhood’ meant in specific historical moments and places, this collection examines the impact that intra-European population mobilisation had on migrants between the 1950s and early 1990s. While previous research has focused on the many legal, economic, and diplomatic aspects of European migration, this book sheds light on the social situations, strategies, and experiences of so-called ‘guest workers’, particularly in relation to their families. Due to official archives revealing little about the lives of children who lived, sometimes for years, clandestinely, in their host countries, there is a need for a more nuanced approach to understanding the perspectives of migrating families in the mid-twentieth century. The contributions in this book bring together research from diverse fields, such as oral history, the sociology of mobilisation, social history of migration, social justice, gender studies, and transnationalism. On various levels (from the local to the international), they explore and contextualise the strategies which migrant families adopted to help deal with the hesitation of Western European nation states to grant the right of family reunification to labour migrants. Their analysis allows to establish a comprehensive and comparative overview about the multiple social situations that shape the live of migrant families, including access to schooling, health care, or the legal system.
