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: Yianni Cartledge, Vesna Curlic, Milosz K. Cybowski, Rosaria Franco, Jade Hastings, Jemima Jarman, Jeffrey Jones, Thomas C. Jones, Chana Revell Kotzin, Michal Adam Palacz, Leslie Rogne Schumacher, Evan Smith, Andrekos Varnava, and Andrew Williams.

"A high-quality volume composed of thoroughly researched essays which brings together a range of case studies providing a pioneering perspective on the study of migrants in Britain and its empire integrating national with global migration." - Panikos Panayi, De Montfort University, UK
