The demographic shockwaves of the nineteenth and early twentieth
centuries in Europe produced tremendous change in the national
economies and affected the political, social, and cultural
development of these societies. Within the past two decades,
migration historians began to connect the various European
migratory streams during this period with transcontinental
migration to North America. This volume contains empirical studies
on German in-migration, internal migration, and transatlantic
emigration from the 1820s to the 1930s, placed in a comparative
perspective of Polish, Swedish, and Irish migration to North
America. Special emphasis is placed on the role of women in the
process of migration. By looking specifically at contemporary
Germany, Klaus J. Bade underscores the relevance of this history in
a concluding essay.
