Refugees and migrants in communal spaces from the 12th to the 21st century DESCRIPTION:Can we discover similar experiences of flight and migration since the middle ages unto contemporary history? What factors and interdependencies have proven successful and consequential for the inclusion or exclusion of immigrants? What causes and social actors contributed to divided societies? In this session, we will offer a long-term perspective on historical mobilities and discuss how people were dealing with migrations. This diachronical analysis helps understanding both persistent similarities and differences over the centuries. During the last centuries, refugees and migrants came from different areas to different destinations via different routes and because of different motives. Yet, these aspects alone did not shape the strategies and action taken by municipalities regarding migration. The way local communities dealt with migration refers to social order in general and to its consequences for municipalities, regions, and mobile people. This session will bring together case studies from late medieval East-Central Europe (Andreas Rüther), Alsatia in the nineteenth century (Levke Harders), the Ruhr valley at the turn of the twentieth century (Anne Friedrichs), and Dutch migration circuits from the early modern period to the present (Leo Lucassen). All papers will tackle three interrelated questions: First, the participants will discuss interdependencies between the local level and other social spaces (like the nation-state, empires or other sovereignties). Second, they will focus on mobile people, local residents, and (state) administrators with their repective practices. Third, the presentations will contribute to a critical reflection on migration historiography by discussing to what extent research is specific to a time period not only because of the historical context but also because of research traditions and source materials.
