The book analyses migration and mobility from the colonial
territories of France, Italy, Portugal and Great BritainThe book
includes contributions from an international team of contributors
including Eva Garau, Toni Ricciardi and Simone PaoliIn a very
innovative way, the volume looks at the disappearing of colonial
powers and at the European unification process not only as
simultaneous proceedings, as they have been usually approached, but
as linked ones
This monograph addresses mobility and migrations as contributing
phenomena in shaping contemporary Europe after 1945, in connection
with decolonisation and the creation of the European Community. The
disappearing of the colonial empires caused a large movement of
people (former colonizers as well as formerly colonized people)
from the extra-European countries to the "Old continent"; while the
European integration project encouraged the movement of the
citizens within the Community. The book retraces how, in both
cases, migrations and mobility impacted the way national
communities, as well as the European one, have been defining
themselves and their real and imaginary boundaries.
