What is Migration History?
Author: Christiane Harzig
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 0745656293
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 169
Book Description
The study of migration is and always has been an interdisciplinary field of study, vast and vibrant in nature. This short introduction to the field, written by leading historians of migration for student readers, offers an acute analysis of key issues across several disciplines. It takes in its scope an overview of migrations through history, how classic theories have interpreted such movements, and contemporary topics and debates including transnational and transcultural lives, access to citizenship, and migrant entrepreneurship. Historical perspectives reveal how the scholarly field emerged and developed over time and across cultures and how historians of migration have recently begun to re-write the story of human life on earth. Throughout, the authors suggest how the movements of millions of mobile men and women persistently challenge changing scholarly paradigms for understanding their lives. Key concepts and theories, such as systems, networks, and gender, are explained and historicized to produce a complex picture of the interaction of migrants, scholars, and disciplinary cultures in a globalized world.

Global History And Migrations
Author: Gungwu Wang
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429979827
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 467
Book Description
Humans have been on the move for millennia. They have done so slowly as well as quickly, sometimes involuntarily, sometimes transported by force, often relocated at great cost in lives, but they have always moved. Over the centuries, improved transportation has eased the movement, even in the face of man-made or natural obstacles. But in modern times, migration has accelerated and its reach has become truly global.Whether it is Turkish gastarbeiter in Germany, Japanese Nisei in Seattle, Filipinos in Kuwait, or Haitians in Brooklyn, the costs and benefits of human mobility on such a wide and rapid scale are hotly debated. Global History and Migrations, the second volume of the Global History Series, explores the historical background of this issue by focusing on recent history, a time when human movements have been at their most dynamic. This book provides a rich, cross-cultural foundation for a more enlightened understanding of migration and its role in the unfolding shape of global history.

Migration from the Russian Empire: June 1889-July 1890
Author: Ira A. Glazier
Publisher: Genealogical Publishing Com
ISBN: 9780806315836
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 562
Book Description
These two volumes continue the work of documenting all 2.3 million immigrants from the Russian Empire who arrived in the United States between 1871 & 1910. Several nationalities or ethnic groups were represented in this migration-Poles, Byelorussians, Ukrainians, Jews, Finns, Lithuanians, Latvians, Estonians, & Germans (the socalled Volga Germans). These ethnic Russians emigrated in far greater numbers than indigenous Russians, as reflected in the fact that of the 1.7 million Russian emigrants who arrived in the U.S. between 1899 & 1910, 43 percent were Jews, 27 percent Poles, 9 percent Lithuanians, 8 percent Finns, 5 percent Germans, & 4 percent indigenous Russians. The first four volumes of Migration from the Russian Empire covered the years 1875-1882, 1882-1886, 1886-1887, & 1888-1889 respectively, & identified by name & various other particulars the 200000 persons of Russian nationality who emigrated to the United States from Russian territory. The pace of emigration from the Russian Empire picked up dramatically after 1889, as illustrated by the 90000 emigrants identified in the present two volumes who arrived in the United States in the two years between June 1889 & June 1891. While this extraordinary migration has been documented as part of the phenomenon known as mass migration, there has never been-until now-an account, by name, of the individuals who participated in this historic movement of population from the Russian Empire. Extracted from the original ships' passenger lists held by the Temple-Balch Center for Immigration Research, the information furnished in these volumes consists of the passenger's name, his age, sex, occupation, country of origin, place of residence, & destination. In addition, each passenger list is headed by the name of the ship, the port of embarkation, the port of arrival, & the date of arrival. By the 1890s, information provided by the passengers would include their last place of residence in Europe & their precise destination in the U.S.

The Unwanted
Author: Michael Robert Marrus
Publisher: Temple University Press
ISBN: 9781439905517
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 436
Book Description
There have always been homeless people, but only in the twentieth century have refugees become an important part of international politics, seriously affecting relations between states. Since the 1880s, the number of displaced persons has climbed astronomically, with people scattered over vaster distances and for longer periods of time than ever before. Tracing the emergence of this new variety of collective alienation, The Unwanted covers everything from the late nineteenth century to the present, encompassing the Armenian refugees, the Jews, the Spanish Civil War émigrés, the Cold War refugees in flight from Soviet states, and much more. Marrus shows not only the astounding dimensions of the subject but also depicts the shocking apathy and antipathy of the international community toward the homeless. He also examines the impact of refugee movements on Great Power diplomacy and considers the evolution of agencies designed to assist refugees, noting outstanding successes and failures.
