Migration has always been a fundamental human activity, yet little
collaboration exists between scientists and social scientists
examining how it has shaped past and contemporary societies. This
innovative volume brings together sociocultural anthropologists,
archaeologists, bioarchaeologists, ethnographers,
paleopathologists, andothers to develop a unifying theory of
migration. The contributors relate past movements, including the
Anglo-Saxon settlement of Britain and the Islamic conquest of
Andalucia, to present-day events, such as those in northern
Ethiopia or at the U.S.-Mexico border. They examine the extent to
which environmental and social disruptionshave been a cause of
migration over time and how these migratory flows have in turn led
to disruptive consequences for the receiving societies. The
observed cycles of social disruption, resettlement, and its
consequences offer a new perspective on how human migration has
shaped the social, economic, political, and environmental
landscapes of societies from prehistory to today.
