Springer International Publishing AG Past and Present Migration Challenges: What
Book SynopsisThis edited collection sheds light on the complex nature of migratory movements through the lens of economic and social history. It addresses a variety of migration issues involving Europe and the Americas in order to offer new insights on past and future migration and integration policies. The volume comprises multi-disciplinary research from both continents dealing with the economic, political, demographical and sociological impact of migration. This interdisciplinary approach aims to stimulate intellectual dialogue on the migration phenomenon among the international community of scholars in Europe and North and South America. It is divided into three parts, which offer an essential contribution to the issue of migration and aim at better understanding the effect that different forms of migration have had and will continue to exert on economic and social change in receiving countries. This book is a valuable resource for a wide audience including academics, students in the economic and social sciences, and government and EU officials working with migration topics.Table of Contents Past and Present Migration: A Multi-Disciplinary Approach, Francesca Fauri and Debora Mantovani PART 1 Italians in Latin America 1.

De Gruyter Der andere Orientalismus: Regeln
Book SynopsisDas Buch bietet erstmals eine systematische Gesamtschau der Entstehung und Gestalt dessen, was als "deutscher Orientalismus" in der Forschung seit längerem diskutiert wird. Mit historischem Fokus auf dem frühen 19. Jahrhundert werden die literarischen, wissenschaftlichen und politischen Bedingungen skizziert, unter denen sich das deutsche Orientbild der Neuzeit konstituiert hat. Das Schlüsselwerk der Orientalismus-Forschung, Edward Saids Orientalism, erfährt dabei ein grundlegende theoretische Revision, die den analytischen Blick auf die Regeln orientalistischer Imagination frei macht. Gestützt auf eine breite Materialbasis zeigt die Studie den Paradigmenwechsel des deutschen Orientalismus um 1800 auf und zeichnet das diskursive Spielfeld nach, auf dem er sich seither bewegt. Detaillierte Einzelstudien zu Goethes West-östlichem Divan, zu Hauffs Märchen und zu orientalischen Phantasien des preußischen Hofes loten die Möglichkeitsräume orientalistischer Ästhetik aus.
