Split into two volumes, The Cambridge History of Global Migrations
explores the lives and evaluates the significance of mobile people
from 1400 to the present. Typically viewed as a phenomenon
synonymous with nineteenth century globalization, migration was
ubiquitous and triggered significant social, economic,
technological and cultural transformations across time. Featuring
over sixty essays from experts across the field, together the
volumes amplify the stories of foragers and herders, pilgrims and
missionaries, merchants, slaves, captives and prisoners, wealthy
and impoverished jobseekers, and refugees fleeing violence,
oppression and environmental change. By evaluating the continuities
and changes of migration and globalization, it reveals the
long-standing power imbalance between economic elites, imperial and
nation-states, and the everyday people who wished to have a say in
who can be forced, encouraged, prohibited or permitted to migrate.
Insightful and comprehensive, these volumes uncover the
ever-present tensions of movement and immobility, and the various
dynamics of globalization.
