This book aims to study the departure and reception of refugees in
19th-century Europe, from the Congress of Vienna to the 1870-1880s.
Through eight chapters, it draws on a transnational approach to
analyze migratory movements across European borders. The book
reviews the chronology of exile and shows how European states
welcomed, selected, and expelled refugees. In addition to
presenting the point of view of nation-states, it reflects the
experience of those migrating. The book addresses departure into
exile, captured through the material circumstances of crossing
borders in the 19th century, and examines the emergence of new ways
to pursue political commitments from abroad. The outcasts are
considered in all their diversity, with a prominent place accorded
to women and children, many of whom also moved under duress. The
book aims to shed light on the forced migrations of Europeans
across Europe, while also considering the global dimension, looking
at exile to the Americas or the French colonies. A final chapter
examines the impossibility or difficulty of returning from exile to
one's country of origin, as well as the a posteriori memorial
constructs around that crucial experience.
