The Yearbook of Transnational History is dedicated to disseminating
pioneering research in the field of transnational history. This
fourth volume is focused to the theme of exile. Authors from across
the historical discipline provide insights into central aspects of
research into the phenomenon of exile in the nineteenth and
twentieth century. Both centuries have seen large numbers of people
- left-leaning revolutionaries as well as monarchists and
conservatives - fleeing revolutions, oppression, persecution, and
extermination. This volume is the first publication to provide a
comprehensive overview over exiles of various political and ethnic
groups beginning with the French Revolution and ending with the
transfer of Nazi scientists from post-World-War-II Germany to the
United States. This volume contains contributions about the
refugees created by the French Revolution, the Forty-Eighters who
were forced out of Germany after the failed Revolution of 1848/49,
the anarchists Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman, Vietnamese
anti-colonial activists in France, the exiles of Nazi Germany, and
the transfer of Nazi scientists such as Wernher von Braun to the
United States after World War II.

era of the Crusades by modern nation states, the lack of national
appropriation in the case of transnational sealing sites in
Antarctica, the process of recognizing transnational heritage sites
in the case of assembly halls created by the transnational labor
movement, and the treatment of potential heritage sites in outer
space.

soccer, travel, music, and social policy. These articles highlight

various cultures and societies and explore the relations and
connections, and spaces created by these movements. These articles

volume offers, further, a number of theoretical and methodological
articles that provide insights into the concept of transnational
history and the approach of intercultural transfer studies. Last

of city planning among developing urban centers within the

the transnational perspective to urban history. The articles in
