Forced Migration: Exiles and Refugees in the UK and the British Empire, 1815-1949
This volume explores the forced migration of people, defined briefly as when individuals or groups are compelled to leave their home countries due to various (though predominantly political) factors, to the UK and the British Empire from 1815 to 1949. With a uniquely international and inclusive scope, this volume is a welcome contribution to our understanding of forced migrations over this 135-year period. It aims to kickstart future work on this subject and provide the basis for a more truly global understanding of refugees, forced migrations, and border controls in modern history.
Contributors are: Vesna Curlic, Milosz Cybowski, Rosaria Franco, Jade Hastings, Jemima Jarman, Jeffrey Jones, Thomas C. Jones, Chana Revell Kotzin, Michal Adam Palacz, Leslie Rogne Schumacher, and Andrew Williams.
