SUMMARY:[Historikertag 2023] Continent with(out) Borders. Mobilities and Europeanisation, 1920s–2000s
DESCRIPTION:The panel explores the links between cross-border mobility and Europeanisation. Echoing recent definitions such as those of Kiran Klaus Patel, the panel construes ‘Europeanisation’ as non-linear and often non-intended processes for which ‘Europe’ served as a reference. Research has highlighted that cross-border mobility was a driver of Europeanisation both from above and from below, resulting from national/transnational institutions and grassroots initiatives. Europeanisation has led to inclusion and exclusion: For example, Richard Jobs has argued that youth tourism-driven Europeanisation reinforced distinctions of ‘race’ but overcame those of class, gender and nationality. The panel aims to enrich such scholarship in two ways: First, it argues that mobility and the incipient Europeanisation were not only forces for integration, as often emphasized in relevant research, but also had the effect of reinforcing internal differences among Europeans from different regions, social classes and ethnicities. Secondly, while relevant scholarship focuses on the post-1945 years, the panel covers a wider timespan from the interwar period until the 1990s, as we consider the end of the First World War as a turning point in intensifying cross-border mobility across parts of Europe.
The papers cover various forms of mobility and their impact on perceptions and practices of people who moved, the local population in places affected by the mobilities in question and the institutions that aimed at regulating such mobilities. Engaging with recent research on intersecting mobilities, such as the works of Mimi Sheller, Maren Möhring and Tara Zahra, the papers study case studies across and beyond Europe. Overall, the panel argues that different and intertwined forms of mobility illuminate key processes that shaped Europe in its internal relations and in its global context.
