Moving Europeans: Migration in Western Europe Since 1650Indiana University Press, 1992 - 257 頁 "The migrations, voluntary and forced, that overran the New World following the Age of Discovery and reached their high-water mark in the years before World War I make up only part of the story of European migrations. During the same period, millions of people in Western Europe were on the move as well. Moving Europeans tells the story of these vast population movements as it examines the links between human mobility and the fundamental changes that transformed European life." "Leslie Page Moch describes the changing face of Western European migration from the preindustrial era to the modern day. She focuses on the changing patterns of work, landholding, and population in rural and urban areas, placing them in the context of the social and political forces that helped to shape human migration. She looks at a broad range of issues, from gender and family practices to the regulations of nineteenth-century nation-states, and details the different experiences of men and women, of the propertied and the proletariat, as she fills in important gaps in our understanding of human mobility."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
