Brill Exiles in a Global City: The Irish and Early Modern Rome, 1609-1783
Book SynopsisIn Exiles in a Global City, Clare Carroll explores Irish migrants’ experiences in early modern Rome (1609-1783) and interprets representations of their cultural identities in relation to their interaction with world-wide Spanish and Roman institutions. This study focuses on some sources in Roman archives not previously considered by Irish historians. The book examines a wide array of cultural productions—Ó Cianáin’s account of O’Neill’s progress from Ireland to Rome, Luke Wadding’s history of the Franciscan order, the portraits at S. Isidoro, the first printed Irish grammar, the letters of Oliver Plunkett, the records of a hospice for converts, Charles Wogan’s memoir, and reports on the national college—for how they transformed emerging senses of an Irish nation.Trade Review“Carroll’s book is a must-read text which has shed light on the multifaceted – and thorny – experience of the Irish exiled in Rome from the early seventeenth century up until the late eighteenth century. Through a magisterial use of a wide array of primary sources the author has finally brought into the light one of the least known, but interesting, foreign communities of Rome.” Matteo Binasco, Università per gli stranieri, Siena. In: The Journal of Ecclesiastical History, Vol. 70, No. 2 (April 2019), pp. 394–395. “Carroll deserves credit for being the first Irish scholar to examine a number of sources previously overlooked in Rome’s archives. Both the frescoes of the Aula Maxima at St. Isodore’s and the records of the Ospizio lend originality to her work and make a convincing case regarding the influence of the Irish exile experience on early modern representations of nation and shifting identities.” David O’Hara, University of Central Arkansas. In: Journal of Early Modern History, Vol. 23, No. 1 (March 2019), pp. 96–98. “This book goes some way toward explaining an aspect of Irishness that is too often taken for granted, and it is a welcome addition to the recent wave of research on Ireland in an early modern European context.” Christopher Maginn, Fordham University. In: Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. 72, No. 2 (summer 2019), pp. 725–726. “Lucidly written, richly illustrated and freighted with footnotes pointing to the secondary literature in a range of languages, this work is based on extensive archival research. Both in content and in method, the book is a significant contribution to the growing literature on the Irish in early modern Europe.” Brian Mac Cuarta S.J. In: Irish Economic and Social History, Vol. 46, No. 1 (2019), pp. 167–170. “The book’s relevance transcends its concentration on the Irish, as the methodological approaches Carroll took and developed continue to be exemplary in the study of Rome, and the city’s impact on her communities. Although Carroll comes out of the literary studies tradition, I would recommend the book even to art historians, especially those involved in early modern Rome, as an example of the usefulness of cross-disciplinary perspective on visual evidence. Furthermore, the book is deeply inspiring as it shows that careful and attentive research […] can continue to generate fresh, thought-provoking, and relevant scholarship.” Anatole Upart, University of Chicago. In: Sixteenth Century Journal, Vol. 44, No. 4 (Winter 2018), pp. 1184–1186.Table of ContentsAcknowledgements List of Illustrations Introduction 1 The “Nation” in Rome: Ó Cianáin’s “Pilgrimage of the Earls” (1609) 2 The Exile as Historian: Luke Wadding’s Annales Minorum (1625–54) between Global and Local Affiliations 3 The Transculturation of Exile: Visual Style and Identity in the Frescoes of the Aula Maxima at St. Isidore’s (1672) 4 A Poetic Anthology for Exiles: Irish Cultural Memory in the First Printed Gaelic Grammar (1677) 5 The Return of the Exile: Oliver Plunkett between Rome and Ireland 6 Irish Protestants in the Theater of the World: The Apostolic Hospice for the Converting, Rome, 1677–1745 7 The Romance and Disillusionment of Exile: Charles Wogan and his Memoir of Clementina Sobieska 8 “The Spiritual Government of the Entire World”: A Memorial for the Irish College Rome, January 1783 Conclusion Bibliography Appendix 1: Comparison of GLH with manuscript Grammars Appendix 2: Index of first lines in Grammatica Latino-Hibernica Appendix 3: List of Irish Guests at the Ospizio Apostolico dei Convertendi Index

Brill Across the Danube: Southeastern Europeans and Their Travelling Identities (17th–19th C.)
Book SynopsisThe Danube has been a border and a bridge for migrants and goods since antiquity. Between the 17th and the 19th centuries, commercial networks were formed between the Ottoman Empire and Central and Eastern Europe creating diaspora communities. This gradually led to economic and cultural transfers connecting the Mediterranean, the Black Sea, and the Continental world of commerce. The contributors to the present volume offer different perspectives on commerce and entrepreneurship based on the interregional treaties of global significance, on cultural and ecclesiastical relations, population policy and demographical aspects. Questions of identity, family, and memory are in the centre of several chapters as they interact with the topographic and socio-anthropological territoriality of all the regions involved. Contributors are: Constantin Ardeleanu, Iannis Carras, Lidia Cotovanu, Lyubomir Georgiev, Olga Katsiardi-Hering, Dimitrios Kontogeorgis, Nenad Makuljević, Ikaros Mantouvalos, Anna Ransmayr, Vaso Seirinidou, Maria A.

Brill From Policemen to Revolutionaries: A Sikh Diaspora in Global Shanghai, 1885-1945
Book SynopsisFrom Policemen to Revolutionaries uncovers the less-known story of Sikh emigrants in Shanghai in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Yin Cao argues that the cross-border circulation of personnel and knowledge across the British colonial and the Sikh diasporic networks, facilitated the formation of the Sikh community in Shanghai, eventually making this Chinese city one of the overseas hubs of the Indian nationalist struggle. By adopting a translocal approach, this study elaborates on how the flow of Sikh emigrants, largely regarded as subalterns, initially strengthened but eventually unhinged British colonial rule in East and Southeast Asia.Trade Review"[...] it is worth reading From Policemen to Revolutionaries for its creative and global thinking on migration history, modern Chinese history, Indian history and British imperial history. Furthermore, the study draws impressively on an abundance of global primary sources in various languages (English, Chinese, Indian), from official archives (Shanghai Municipal Council, Colonial Office, Indian Office) to local newspaper (London, India, Singapore, California, Hong Kong, Shanghai)".

Brill Generosity and Refugees: The Kosovars in Exile
Book SynopsisGenerosity and Refugees: The Kosovars in Exile is a work of history studying the social and political context encountered by Kosovar refugees fleeing their homeland to Australia at the height of the NATO-led war against Serbian forces in 1999. The flight of the Kosovar refugees changed Australia's asylum seeker policy forever, and a new test for international humanitarianism had begun. Today refugee crises globally beg the international community to embrace a generosity of spirit. A question this book asks is whether there are limits to generosity, inhibited by nationally contextual and historical perspectives. Generosity and Refugees examines the role of the media in framing public understandings of refugees with intriguing parallels for understanding the contemporary political climate internationally.

Brill Fruits of Migration: Heterodox Italian Migrants and Central European Culture 1550-1620
Book SynopsisMigration is a problem of highest importance today, and likewise is its history. Italian migrants who had to leave the peninsula in the long sixteenth century because of their heterodox Protestant faith is a topic that has its deep roots in Italian Renaissance scholarship since Delio Cantimori: It became a part of a twentieth century form of Italian leyenda negra in liberal historiography. But its international dimension and Central Europe (not only Germany) as destination of that movement has often been neglected. Three different levels of connectivity are addressed: the materiality of communication (travel, printing, the diffusion of books and manuscripts); individual migrants and their biographies and networks; and the cultural transfers, discourses, and ideas migrating in one or in both directions.Trade Review"Fruits of Migration is a very rich and well-structured volume of high-level and original essays on an unexplored subject." (translated from Italian) Marco Albertoni, Università di Bologna, in Riforma e Movimenti Religiosi 8, pp. 380-384 “Fruits of Migration is an excellent work and of interest to scholars of both Italian and migratory history.” Timothy J. Orr, Simpson University. In: Sixteenth Century Journal, Vol. 50, No. 3 (Fall 2019), pp. 863–865. “Fruits of Migration è un volume ricchissimo e ben strutturato, che ha il fondamentale pregio di aver donato alla ricerca un prodotto che mancava, fatto di saggi originali e di alto livello."

Brill Selling Sex in the City: A Global History of Prostitution, 1600s-2000s
Book SynopsisSelling Sex in the City offers a worldwide analysis of prostitution that takes a long historical approach which covers a time period from 1600 to the 2000s. The overviews in this volume examine sex work in more than twenty notorious “sin cities” around the world, ranging from Sydney to Singapore and from Casablanca to Chicago. Situated within a comparative framework of local developments, the book takes up themes such as labour relations, coercion, agency, gender, and living and working conditions. Selling Sex in the City thus reveals how prostitution and societal reactions to the trade have been influenced by colonization, industrialization, urbanization, the rise of nation states, imperialism, and war, as well as by revolutions in politics, transport, and communication. Contributors are: Pascale Absi, Dlila Amir, Deborah Bernstein, Francesca Biancani, Thaddeus Gregory Blanchette, Amalia L. Cabezas, Susan P. Conner, Satarupa Dasgupta, Mfon Umoren Ekpootu, Raelene Frances, Pamela Fuentes, Sue Gronewold, Hanan Hammad, Shawna Herzog, Philippa Hetherington, Nicole Keusch, Liat Kozma, Julia Laite, Nomi Levenkron, Mary Linehan, Maja Mechant, Fernanda Nuñez, Marion Pluskota, Cristiana Schettini, Hila Shamir, Yvonne Svanström, Isabelle Tracol-Huynh, Michela Turno, Elise van Nederveen Meerkerk, and Mark David Wyers.Trade Review"It provides a densely rich and complex look at five hundred years of social, economic, and political entanglements that will fascinate global and world historians, as well as those interested in colonial, urban, and migration history. In providing novel approaches to understanding the contested theories and practices around sold sex, Selling Sex in the City is an essential, even if very large, handbook for activists and political actors engaged in debates around sex work and human trafficking".

Brill Filipino American Transnational Activism: Diasporic Politics among the Second Generation
Book SynopsisRead an interview with Robyn Rodriguez. Filipino American Transnational Activism: Diasporic Politics among the Second Generation offers an account of how Filipinos born or raised in the United States often defy the multiple assimilationist agendas that attempt to shape their understandings of themselves. Despite conditions that might lead them to reject any kind of relationship to the Philippines in favor of a deep rootedness in the United States, many forge linkages to the “homeland” and are actively engaged in activism and social movements transnationally. Though it may well be true that most Filipino Americans have an ambivalent relationship to the Philippines, many of the chapters of this book show that other possibilities for belonging and imaginaries of “home” are being crafted and pursued.Table of Contents Acknowledgements Abbreviations Notes on Contributors Introduction Robyn Magalit Rodriguez 1 Being Filipino without the Philippines: Second-Generation Filipino American Ethnic Identification Armand Gutierrez 2 Bayan Ko (My Country): The KDP and a Diasporic Vision of Filipino American Activism, 1972–1981 Joy N.

Brill New Voices of Muslim North-African Migrants in Europe
Book SynopsisNew Voices of Muslim North-African Migrants in Europe captures the experience in writing of a fast growing number of individuals belonging to migrant communities in Europe. The book follows attempts to transform postcolonial literary studies into a comparative, translingual, and supranational project. Cristián H. Ricci frames Moroccan literature written in European languages within the ampler context of borderland studies. The author addresses the realm of a literature that has been practically absent from the field of postcolonial literary studies (i.e. Neerlandophone or Gay Muslim literature). The book also converses with other minor literatures and theories from Sub-Saharan Africa, as well as Asians and Latino/as in the Americas that combine histories of colonization, labor migration, and enforced exile.Table of ContentsAcknowledgements A Note on Translations Introduction: A Transmodern-Postcolonial Approach to Afro-European Literature 1 Memories of al-Andalus: between “Paterista” and Testimonial Poetry 2 Negotiating Afro-Iberian Identity in Moroccan and Riffian Literature 1 Castilian Language in Morocco: from the Protectorate to the “Return of the Moors” 2 Moroccan Borderland Literature in Castilian 3 Amazigh (Berber)-Catalan Women and the Forging of an Afro-Iberian Identity 3 Marginal Sexualities in/from Morocco and France 1 Salvation Army 2 An Arab Melancholia 4 Writing the Riff (Morocco) from the Netherlands and Belgium 1 Wedding by the Sea: Troublesome Homecoming for Second-generation Migrants 2 Abdullah’s Feet: the Longing for an Imaginary Homeland from Amsterdam 3 Internal and External Borders in Brick Oussaïd’s Mountains Forgotten by God 5 Moroccan Displacements through History in the Narrative of Laila Lalami Conclusion Works Cited Index

Brill Migration Histories of the Medieval Afroeurasian Transition Zone: Aspects of mobility between Africa, Asia and Europe, 300-1500 C.E.
Book SynopsisThe transition zone between Africa, Asia and Europe was the most important intersection of human mobility in the medieval period. The present volume for the first time systematically covers migration histories of the regions between the Mediterranean and Central Asia and between Eastern Europe and the Indian Ocean in the centuries from Late Antiquity up to the early modern era. Within this framework, specialists from Byzantine, Islamic, Medieval and African history provide detailed analyses of specific regions and groups of migrants, both elites and non-elites as well as voluntary and involuntary. Thereby, also current debates of migration studies are enriched with a new dimension of deep historical time. Contributors are: Alexander Beihammer, Lutz Berger, Florin Curta, Charalampos Gasparis, George Hatke, Dirk Hoerder, Johannes Koder, Johannes Preiser-Kapeller, Lucian Reinfandt, Youval Rotman, Yannis Stouraitis, Panayiotis Theodoropoulos, and Myriam Wissa.

Brill Migration Journeys to Israel: Narratives of the Way and Their Meaning
Book SynopsisThis book addresses a lacuna in the study of Jewish and Israeli history - that of journeys taken by Jews in the 20th century towards Israel – which is also a neglected subject in the more general fields of migration and refugee studies. Dr. Gadi BenEzer, a psychologist and anthropologist, eloquently shows how such journeys are life changing events that affect individuals, families, and communities in a variety of ways. Based on narrative research of Jewish people who have undergone journeys on their way to Israel from around the world, the author is able to pose original questions and give initial convincing answers. The powerful personal accounts are followed by a thought-provoking analysis.Table of ContentsAcknowledgments Introduction: Researching Journeys in Migration and Refugee Studies part 1: Journey Stories 1 Building Independence: The Journey of Elisha from Syria 2 From Loss to Belonging: The Journey of Yirmi from Poland 3 Setting Out to the Open Spaces: The Journey of Bracha from Yemen 4 Towards the Place Where the Future Will Begin: The Journey of Yair from Transnistria 5 A Generation Going on the Way: The Journey of Oscar from Iraq 6 From Auschwitz to “Flowers from Israel”: The Journey of Yigal from Germany 7 God Loves Me: The Journey of Rivka from the Ukraine 8 The Journey of the Jewish People: The Journey of Saul from Afghanistan 9 Going to “Paris”: The Journeys of Alyna and Alex from Romania 10 A Journey of Reclaimed Honor: The Journey of Simon from Libya 11 The Partisan’s Journey: The Journey of Frieda from Poland part 2: Migration and Refugee Journeys: the Case of Jewish Migrants/Refugees Journeying to Israel 12 The Journey as a Meaning Category 13 Children on Journeys 14 Identity During the Journey 15 The Encounter with Israel as a Part of the Journey Maps of the Journeys Bibliography Index

Brill The Vietnamese Diaspora in a Transnational Context: Contested Spaces, Contested Narratives
Book SynopsisThe Vietnamese diaspora is now a truly global diaspora. This collection, one of the first of its kind, traces the Vietnamese diaspora’s multifaceted roots in late 19th and early 20th century French colonialism, the end of the War in Vietnam, and economic migrations to fellow communist states in the 1970s and 1980s. Out of these migrations, Vietnamese communities have now formed in many of the major immigrant receiving countries around the world. This collection traces the connection between the historically traumatic forms of dispersal from Vietnam and todays transnational Vietnamese communities. It considers questions about how conditions of exit from Vietnam shape Vietnamese diaspora identities and patterns of settlement and economic integration. It also addresses questions of how memory politics shape the ways in which various segments of the Vietnamese diaspora engage with contemporary Vietnam, and shape what is now an intergenerational diaspora.

Brill Regional Integration and Migration in Africa: Lessons from Southern and West Africa
Book SynopsisThis comparative book debates migration and regional integration in the two regional economic blocs, namely the Southern African Development Community (SADC) and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). The book takes a historical and nuanced citizenship approach to integration by analysing regional integration from the perspective of non-state actors and how they negotiate various structures and institutions in their pursuit for life and livelihood in a contemporary context marked by mobility and economic fragmentation.Trade Review[...] 'This volume offers a review of the literature on regional integration with an emphasis on Africa. Close attention is paid to the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and the Southern African Development Community (SADC), both of which have 15 member states. In addition to looking at ECOWAS's and SADC's policies and protocols, the authors present a field study in four countries, two in each region (West and Southern Africa). They aim to emphasize people-centered regional integration, looking at nonprofessional migrants rather than elites. There are frequent references to the "resilient economy," which is not the same as the informal economy. Supplemented by in-chapter references, this book provides a unique perspective on regional integration in Africa.' J. E.

Brill Regional Integration in Africa: What Role for South Africa?
Book SynopsisIn Regional Integration in Africa: What Role for South Africa, Henri Bah, Siphamandla Zondi and André Mbata Mangu reflect on African integration and the contribution of post-Apartheid South Africa. From their different scientific backgrounds, they demonstrate that despite some progress made under the African Union that superseded the Organisation of African Unity, Africa is still lagging behind in terms of regional integration and South Africa, which benefitted from the rest of the continent in her struggle against apartheid, has not as yet played a major role in this process. Apart from contributing to advancing knowledge, the book is a recommended read for all those interested in African regional integration and the relationships between Africa and post-Apartheid South Africa. Contributors are Henri Bah, André Mbata Mangu and Siphamandla Zondi.

Brill Theology and Migration
Book SynopsisIn an age of global migration, how should Christian theologians and church leaders respond to its various challenges and problems? What is a fundamental theological framework with which we are to engage in them? In this volume, Ilsup Ahn attempts to answer these questions by presenting a “Trinitarian theology of migration.” In doing so, he first provides an overview of recent theological works on migration by introducing their key theological insights. A Trinitarian theology of migration becomes possible as we begin to see that the three Sacred Persons (the Son, the Father, and the Holy Spirit) are distinctively, yet intrinsically involved with the phenomenon of human migration within God’s grand vision of liberation and redemption. From a Trinitarian theological perspective, in all stages of human migration from taking leave to getting integrated, migrants and citizens are called to join in God’s liberative and redemptive works for all the people of God.

Brill The Power of the Dispersed: Early Modern Global Travelers beyond Integration
Book SynopsisEarly modern travelers often did not form part of classic ‘diaspora’ communities: they frequently never really settled, perhaps remaining abroad for some time in one place, then traveling further; not ‘blown by the wind,’ but by changing and complex conditions that often turned out to make them unwelcome anywhere. The dispersed developed strategies of survival by keeping their distance from old and new temporary ‘homes,’ as well as by using information from and manipulating foreign representations of their former countries. This volume assembles case studies from the Mediterranean context, the Americas and Japan. They explore what kind of ‘power(s)’ and agency dispersed people had, counterintuitively, through the connections they maintained with their former homes, and through those they established abroad.

Brill My Body Was Left on the Street: Music Education
Book SynopsisDisplacement, relocation, dissociation: each of these terms elicits images of mass migration, homelessness, statelessness, or outsiderness of many kinds, too numerous to name. This book aims to create opportunities for scholars, practitioners, and silenced voices to share theories and stories of progressive and transgressive music pedagogies that challenge the ways music educators and learners think about and practice their arts relative to displacement. Displacement is defined as encompassing all those who have been forced away from their locations by political, social, economic, climate, and resource change, injustice, and insecurity. This includes: - refugees and internally displaced persons; - forced migrants; - indigenous communities who have been forced off their traditional lands; - people who have fled homes because of their gender identity and sexual orientation; - imprisoned individuals; - persons who seek refuge for reasons of domestic and social violence; - homeless persons and others who live in transient spaces; - the disabled, who are relocated involuntarily; and - the culturally dispossessed, whose languages and heritage have been taken away from them. In the context of the first ever book on displacement and music education, the authors connect displacement to what music might become to those peoples who find themselves between spaces, parted from the familiar and the familial. Through, in, and because of a variety of musical participations, they contend that displaced peoples might find comfort, inclusion, and welcome of some kinds either in making new music or remembering and reconfiguring past musical experiences.

Brill The Memorykeepers: Gendered Knowledges, Empires, and Indonesian American History
Book SynopsisDorothy Fujita-Rony’s The Memorykeepers: Gendered Knowledges, Empires, and Indonesian American History examines the importance of women's memorykeeping for two Toba Batak women whose twentieth-century histories span Indonesia and the United States, H.L.Tobing and Minar T. Rony. This book addresses the meanings of family stories and artifacts within a gendered and interimperial context, and demonstrates how these knowledges can produce alternate cartographies of memory and belonging within the diaspora. It thus explores how women’s memorykeeping forges integrative possibility, not only physically across islands, oceans, and continents, but also temporally, across decades, empires, and generations. Thirty-five years in the making, The Memorykeepers is the first book on Indonesian Americans written within the fields of US history, American Studies, and Asian American Studies. See inside the book.Trade Review“This book makes significant contributions to Asian American studies, studies of empire and colonialism, US Cold War history, women’s history, and gender studies. Dorothy B. Fujita-Rony marshals a wealth of evidence from personal narratives and material culture to reveal how women’s “memorykeeping” constitutes a practice of resistance and critique. Her study illuminates the workings of multiple empires in the everyday life of two Toba Batak women, H.L. Tobing and Minar T. Rony, making visible the intertwined forces of gender and empire." - Valerie Matsumoto, University of California, Los Angeles "Dr. Dorothy B. Fujita-Rony’s book, The Memorykeepers: Gendered Knowledges, Empires, and Indonesian American History, is an original and pioneering manuscript in the field of Indonesian American Studies. Particularly valuable is how the scholarship highlights women’s memorykeeping across time and space. A work of this importance is long overdue." - Shirley Lim, State University of New York at Stony BrookTable of ContentsAcknowledgments List of Illustrations Note on Orthography and Names Introduction: Daughter of a Daughter: the Labor of Memorykeeping 1 Questions 2 The ‘Indonesian American’ Context 3 ‘Return’ and ‘Belonging’ Part 1: Empire and Gender 1 Empires:Interimperialism, Migration, and the United States 1 Introduction 2 When Empires Came to You: the Toba Batak 3 Multilingualism and Interimperial Temporality 4 The United States Cold War 5 Conclusion 2 Gendered Knowledges:Patriarchies and the Politics of Belonging 1 Introduction 2 The Toba Batak Culture as Political Location 3 Colonial Domesticity 4 Converging Gender Hierarchies 5 Negotiation and Challenge 6 Conclusion Part 2: Curating Time 3 Stories and Silences: Telling the Past 1 Introduction 2 Searching for Archives 3 What Is Said 4 What Is Not Said 5 Two Pictures 6 Conclusion 4 Artifacts and Memories: Representing Meaning 1 Introduction 2 Knowledge as Legacy 3 Memorykeeping as Response to Precarity 4 The Labor of Artifacts 5 Conclusion Part 3: Memorykeeping Prologue to Part 3: A Journey and a Path 5 Across Empires: The Narrative of H.L.

Brill Migrants, Refugees, and Asylum Seekers in Latin America
Book SynopsisScholarship on ethnicity in modern Latin America has traditionally understood the region’s various societies as fusions of people of European, indigenous, and/or African descent. These are often deployed as stable categories, with European or “white” as a monolith against which studies of indigeneity or blackness are set. The role of post-independence immigration from eastern and western Europe—as well as from Asia, Africa, and Latin-American countries—in constructing the national ethnic landscape remains understudied. The contributors of this volume focus their attention on Jewish, Arab, non-Latin European, Asian, and Latin American immigrants and their experiences in their “new” homes. Rejecting exceptionalist and homogenizing tendencies within immigration history, contributors advocate instead an approach that emphasizes the locally- and nationally-embedded nature of ethnic identification.Trade Review"This edited volume presents a useful contribution to the migration history of Latin America, situated squarely in the transdisciplinary field of migration studies and following the equally interesting 2017 volume by two of the coeditors. (...) Among the most fascinating chapters are the three that focus on inter-American migratory flows by addressing US immigrants in Costa Rica, Colombian women in Ecuador (many of whom received asylum), and the Franco-Brazilian borderlands." - Edward Blumenthal, Université Sorbonne Nouvelle, HAHR November 2021.Table of ContentsAcknowledgments List of Contributors 1 Introduction Raanan Rein, Stefan Rinke, and David M.K.

Brill Coercive Geographies: Historicizing Mobility, Labor and Confinement
Book SynopsisResponding to the deteriorating situation of migrants today and the complex assemblages of the geographies they navigate, Coercive Geographies examines historical and contemporary forms of coercion and constraint exercised by a wide range of actors in diverse settings. It links the question of spatial confines to that of labor. This fraught nexus of mobility and work seems self-evidently relevant to explore. Coercive Geographies is our attempt to bring together space, precarity, labor coercion and mobility in an analytical lens. Precarity emerges in particular geographical and historical contexts, which are decisive for how it is shaped. The book analyzes coercive geographies as localized and spatialized intersections between labor regulations and migration policies, which become detrimental to existing mobility frameworks. Contributors include: Irina Aguiari, Abdulkadir Osman Farah, Leandros Fischer, Konstantinos Floros, Johan Heinsen, Martin Bak Jørgensen, Martin Ottovay Jørgensen, Apostolos Kapsalis, Karin Krifors, Sven Van Melkebeke, Susi Meret, and Vasileios Spyridon Vlassis.Table of Contents Preface and Acknowledgements List of Illustrations Notes on Contributors 1 Coercive Geographies: Historicizing Mobility, Labor and Confinement.

Brill Baghdadi Jewish Networks in the Age of Nationalism
Book SynopsisBaghdadi Jewish Networks in the Age of Nationalism traces the participation of Baghdadi Jews in Jewish transnational networks from the mid-nineteenth century until the mass exodus of Jews from Iraq between 1948 and 1951. Each chapter explores different components of how Jews in Iraq participated in global Jewish civil society through the modernization of communal leadership, Baghdadi satellite communities, transnational Jewish philanthropy and secular Jewish education. The final chapter presents three case studies that demonstrate the interconnectivity between different iterations of transnational Jewish networks. This work significantly expands our understanding of modern Iraqi Jewish society by going beyond its engagement with Arab/Iraqi nationalism or Zionism/anti-Zionism to explore Baghdadi participation within Jewish transnational networks.Table of ContentsAcknowledgements List of Figures and Tables Abbreviations Transliteration Notes Introduction 1 Scholarship on the Jews of Iraq 2 Methods and Sources 3 Jewish Transnational Networks: Modernization, Globalization, and Secularization 4 The Jewish Communal Organization in Iraq 5 Outline 1 Nineteenth-Century Network and Connections 1 Secular Jewish Identity and Transnational Jewish Solidarity 2 Economic and Political Reforms 3 Nineteenth-Century European Influence: Iterations of Enlightenment 4 The Lay Council: Structural and Intellectual Forces of Modernity 5 Conclusions: Nineteenth-Century Networks and Innovations 2 Transnational Networks and the Baghdadi Diaspora 1 The Satellite Communities as a Baghdadi Diaspora 2 Historical Background 3 The Baghdadi Diaspora and Its Connection with Baghdad 4 Language Use and the Baghdadi Jewish Press 5 Financial Support and Philanthropy 6 Social Status and Mitigating Poverty 7 Changes in the Baghdadi World, 1941 to 1951 8 Conclusions: Lasting Influences in Baghdad 3 Transnational Jewish Philanthropy 1 Foreign Partners 2 Communal Budgets: A Mosaic of Actors 3 Conclusions: Philanthropic Diversity and Continuity 4 Jewish Education in Iraq 1 The Development of the Jewish School Network 2 Modern Jewish Schools 3 Curriculum: Multilingualism and Modernity 4 Linguistic Creativity and Cultural Diversity 5 Conclusions 5 Twentieth-Century Networks 1 Theosophy: Challenging Rabbinic Hegemony 2 E.

Brill The Memorykeepers: Gendered Knowledges, Empires,
Book SynopsisDorothy Fujita-Rony’s The Memorykeepers: Gendered Knowledges, Empires, and Indonesian American History examines the importance of women's memorykeeping for two Toba Batak women whose twentieth-century histories span Indonesia and the United States, H.L.Tobing and Minar T. Rony. This book addresses the meanings of family stories and artifacts within a gendered and interimperial context, and demonstrates how these knowledges can produce alternate cartographies of memory and belonging within the diaspora. It thus explores how women’s memorykeeping forges integrative possibility, not only physically across islands, oceans, and continents, but also temporally, across decades, empires, and generations. Thirty-five years in the making, The Memorykeepers is the first book on Indonesian Americans written within the fields of US history, American Studies, and Asian American Studies.Trade Review“This book makes significant contributions to Asian American studies, studies of empire and colonialism, US Cold War history, women’s history, and gender studies.

Book SynopsisThis book forms an introduction to the emerging discipline of “psychology of migration”, which is an interdisciplinary field of reflection and research, joining together diverse subfields of psychology with anthropological, sociological, demographic and historical inquiry on migration processes. The introductory chapter marks the borders of this borderline discipline, defines important notions and the subject of inquiry, and presents its main research themes together with prospective paths for the discipline’s development. The second chapter presents research methods applied in psychology of migration. Acculturation processes and their psychological analysis as well an impact on the mental health of migrants are the main topics of interest in the third chapter. The last chapter covers issues of mutual relations between religion and migration. Conclusive remarks on contemporary psychology of migration facing cultural and religious diversity in COVID-19 pandemic times are outlined, pointing at challenges the discipline will surely meet in the future.Table of ContentsAbstract Keywords 1 Introduction 2 Psychology of Migration – Crossing Borders as Seen from the Borderline (Discipline) 3 Research Methods in Psychology of Migration 4 Acculturation Processes and Mental Well-Being of Migrants as an Axis for Problem-Centered Psychology of Migration 5 A Look into the Future.

Brill Émigré Voices: Conversations with Jewish Refugees from Germany and Austria
Book SynopsisIn Émigré Voices Lewkowicz and Grenville present twelve oral history interviews with men and women who came to Britain as Jewish refugees from Germany and Austria in the late 1930s. Many of the interviewees rose to great prominence in their chosen career, such as the author and illustrator Judith Kerr, the actor Andrew Sachs, the photographer and cameraman Wolf Suschitzky, the violinist Norbert Brainin, and the publisher Elly Miller. The narratives of the interviewees tell of their common struggles as child or young adult refugees who had to forge new lives in a foreign country and they illuminate how each interviewee dealt with the challenges of forced emigration and the Holocaust. The voices of the twelve interviewees provide the reader with a unique and original source, which gives direct access to the lived multifaceted experience of the interviewees and their contributions to British culture.Table of ContentsPreface Acknowledgements Introduction: The Exhibition Anthony Grenville The Interviews Bea Lewkowicz 1 Doris Balacs 2 Norbert Brainin 3 Anton Walter Freud 4 Richard Grunberger 5 Daisy Hoffner 6 Lucie Kaye (née Schachne) 7 Judith Kerr 8 Elly Miller 9 Lord Claus Moser, Baron Moser KCB CBE 10 Andrew Sachs 11 Hans Seelig 12 Wolfgang Suschitzky Index

Brill Across the Waves: Strategies of Belonging in Indian Ocean Island Societies
Book SynopsisAll the islands of the western Indian Ocean are immigrant societies: Austronesian seafarers, African slaves, Arab traders, South Asian indentured labourers and European plantation owners have all settled, some voluntarily, others less so, on Madagascar and Zanzibar, in the Mascarenes and the Comoros. Successive arrivals often struggle to establish their places in these societies, negotiating their way in the face of antipathy, resistance, even violence, as different claims to belonging conflict. The contributions to this volume take a selection of case studies from across the region, and from different perspectives, contributing to a theorisation of the concept of belonging itself.

Brill Chinese in France amid the Covid-19 Pandemic: Daily Lives, Racial Struggles and Transnational Citizenship of Migrants and Descendants
Book SynopsisThe day after the epidemic broke out in Wuhan, Chinese people in France are already busy sending masks across borders and sharing media information; at the same time, a significant number of Chinese people are victims of racist attacks, insults and discrimination in France. Based on both quantitative and qualitative empirical data, this book reveals the new dynamics and interactions generated by the Covid-19 pandemic not only between different sub-groups of Chinese in France, but also between ethnic Chinese and their both countries: China and France. Mutual aid, local or transnational solidarity, inclusion initiatives, like any act of exclusion and hostility, invite you to question the essence of humanity in transnational settings, beyond the racialization of the Covid-19 virus.Table of ContentsAcknowledgments List of Tables and Figures Notes on Contributors Introduction: Between Two Worlds: the Chinese Diaspora in France during Covid-19 Simeng Wang and Francesco Madrisotti section 1: Everyday Practices and Daily Lives during the Pandemic 1 Multilingual Media Consumption by the Chinese People in France during the Covid-19 Pandemic Francesco Madrisotti and Simeng Wang 2 Out of Step: Preventive Measures among People of Chinese Origin in France during the Covid-19 Pandemic Simeng Wang and Francesco Madrisotti 3 Stress and Anxiety among the Chinese Population in France during the Covid-19 Pandemic: a Study Investigating Personal and Societal Factors Francesco Madrisotti and Simeng Wang 4 Between Safety and Health: How the Pandemic Reshaped Food Behaviors among Chinese People in France Simeng Wang, Francesco Madrisotti and Xiabing Chen 5 A Community Response to the Covid-19 Pandemic: Collective Actions by Chinese Residents of a Multiethnic Neighborhood in the Northern Suburbs of Paris Yong Li and Simeng Wang Section 2: Focus on Specific Chinese Populations in France during the Covid-19 Pandemic 6 Social Ties of Elderly Migrants during Covid-19: the Chinese in Paris Simeng Wang 7 Disruption in Study Abroad during the Pandemic: Chinese Students in France Yong Li, Ran Yan and Simeng Wang 8 Survival during the Pandemic and Coping with Risk: an Ethnography of Vulnerable Chinese Migrants Receiving Food Assistance Francesco Madrisotti, Ran Yan and Simeng Wang 9 Capitalizing on Opportunities during the Covid-19 Pandemic: Business Transitions among Chinese Entrepreneurs in France Simeng Wang and Xiabing Chen Section 3: Citizenship, Mobilization, and Relationship to the Home and Host Countries during the Covid-19 Pandemic 10 Anti-Asian Racism during the Covid-19 Pandemic: Experiences, Narratives, and Reactions Simeng Wang and Francesco Madrisotti 11 Caring for Compatriots during the Covid-19 Pandemic: Professional Practices by Health-Care Workers of Chinese Origin in France Simeng Wang 12 Transnational Solidarity during the Covid-19 Pandemic: the Chinese Diaspora in France Simeng Wang and Yong Li Conclusion Simeng Wang

Brill The Vietnamese Diaspora in a Transnational Context: Contested Spaces, Contested Narratives
Book SynopsisThe Vietnamese diaspora is now a truly global diaspora. This collection, one of the first of its kind, traces the Vietnamese diaspora’s multifaceted roots in late 19th and early 20th century French colonialism, the end of the War in Vietnam, and economic migrations to fellow communist states in the 1970s and 1980s. Out of these migrations, Vietnamese communities have now formed in many of the major immigrant receiving countries around the world. This collection traces the connection between the historically traumatic forms of dispersal from Vietnam and todays transnational Vietnamese communities. It considers questions about how conditions of exit from Vietnam shape Vietnamese diaspora identities and patterns of settlement and economic integration. It also addresses questions of how memory politics shape the ways in which various segments of the Vietnamese diaspora engage with contemporary Vietnam, and shape what is now an intergenerational diaspora.

Brill Imagining Latinidad: Digital Diasporas and Public Engagement Among Latin American Migrants
Book SynopsisImagining Latinidad examines how Latin American migrants use technology for public engagement, social activism, and to build digital, diasporic communities. Thanks to platforms like Facebook and YouTube, immigrants from Latin America can stay in contact with the culture they left behind. Members of these groups share information related to their homeland through discussions of food, music, celebrations, and other cultural elements. Despite their physical distance, these diasporic virtual communities are not far removed from the struggles in their homelands, and migrant activists play a central role in shaping politics both in their home country and in their host country.

Brill Conditional Freedom: Free Soil and Fugitive Slaves from the U.S. South to Mexico’s Northeast, 1803–1861
Book SynopsisWhile the literature on slave flight in nineteenth-century North America has commonly focused on fugitive slaves escaping to the U.S. North and Canada, Conditional Freedom provides new insights on the social and political geography of freedom and slavery in nineteenth-century North America by exploring the development of southern routes of escape from slavery in the U.S. South and the experiences of self-emancipated slaves in the U.S.–Mexico borderlands. In Conditional Freedom, Thomas Mareite offers a social history of U.S. refugees from slavery, and provides a political history of the clash between Mexican free soil and the spread of slavery west of the Mississippi valley during the nineteenth-century.Table of ContentsAcknowledgments List of Maps, Figures, and Tables Abbreviations Introduction 1 Free Soil and Spaces of Freedom in the Age of the Second Slavery 2 Historiographies and Insights 3 Sources and Outline Part 1: Fleeing Slavery 1 Experiencing Slavery, Imagining Freedom 1 Introduction 2 “A Spirit of Great Insubordination”: Mexico as Imagined Land of Freedom for African Americans 3 Relatives and Loved Ones 4 “Por maltrato”: The Second Slavery’s Violence and Serial Runaways 5 “Más mal que lo corriente”: Paternalism, (Broken) Compromises and Conflicts 6 The Intersection of Gender, Age and Qualifications 7 Conclusion 2 Geography, Mobility and Networks: Escaping through the US-Mexico Borderlands 1 Introduction 2 Easing Mobility: Spatial and Material Strategies 3 Abolitionists, Smugglers and Scapegoats 4 Cracking Down on Mobility: Legal and Extra-Legal Violence in the Borderlands 5 Conclusion Part 2: Crafting Freedom 3 Self-Liberated Slaves and Asylum in Northeastern Mexico, 1803–1836 1 Introduction 2 Slave Refugees in Late Colonial New Spain (1803–1821) 3 Self-Liberated Slaves in Early Independent Mexico (1821–1836) 4 Conclusion 4 “Mexico Was Free!
