This volume offers a pan-European survey that encompasses Switzerland, Prussia, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Britain. It explores how the conception of belonging changed over time and space from the 1500s onwards, how communities dealt with the welfare expectations of an increasingly mobile population that migrated both within and between states, the welfare rights that were attached to those who “belonged,” and how ordinary people secured access to welfare resources. What emerged was a sophisticated European settlement system, which on the one hand structured itself to limit the claims of the poor, and yet on the other was peculiarly sensitive to their demands and negotiations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t“…\u003cem\u003ea valuable and engaging contribution to historical debates about labor, poverty, relief, and belonging…[The papers] are written by leaders in their fields…and pulled together [by the editors] in an elegant and convincing treatment of the case for such a geographical spread\u003c\/em\u003e.” \u003cstrong\u003e ·  Alannah Tomkins\u003c\/strong\u003e, University of Keele\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t“…\u003cem\u003ea very valuable collection of articles on an important subject of social history in the long period running from the end of the Middle Ages to the 20th century…[Of particular interest] for an Anglo-American readership is the innovative comparative perspective that must be seen as a substantial contribution to the ongoing international research on poverty, poor relief and migration in Europe… All articles are of good, very good or outstanding academic quality\u003c\/em\u003e.”  \u003cstrong\u003e·  \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLutz Raphael\u003c\/strong\u003e, Trier University\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \tList of Tables\u003cbr\u003e \tList of Figures\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eIntroduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Settlement and Belonging in Europe, 1600-1950: Structures, Negotiations and Experiences\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eJoanna Innes, Steven King and Anne Winter\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 1.\u003c\/strong\u003e Settlement and the Law in the Seventeenth Century\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eDavid Feldman\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 2. \u003c\/strong\u003eDouble Deterrence: Settlement and Practice in London’s West End, 1725–1824\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eJeremy Boulton\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 3. \u003c\/strong\u003ePoor Relief, Settlement and Belonging in England 1780s to 1840s\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eSteven King\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 4.\u003c\/strong\u003e Memories of Pauperism\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eJane Humphries\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 5.\u003c\/strong\u003e Belonging, Settlement and the New Poor Law in England and Wales 1870s–1900s\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eElizabeth Hurren\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 6.\u003c\/strong\u003e Citizens But Not Belonging: Migrants’ Difficulties in Obtaining Entitlement to Relief in Switzerland from the 1550s to the Early Twentieth Century\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eAnne-Lise Head-König\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 7. \u003c\/strong\u003eOverrun by Hungry Hordes?
