About the Book

In a globalized world, discussions about migration and (inter)cultural identity call for a thorough analysis of the way in which people shape their cultural self-understanding. A comprehensive insight into these themes requires a study of the long-term development of migrants and the multi-faceted historical perspective of the context of migration. The book brings together a unique combination of academic reflections and research findings on migration in the fields of cultural history, history of education and comparative literature, focusing especially on the dimensions of intercultural identity and border regions. It broaches a largely unexplored, yet promising, academic area of 'hybrid' investigation that does justice to the richness of the migration process. The diverse historico-cultural studies of migration in this volume contribute to a more in-depth understanding of issues that are at the centre of contemporary debates on culture and identity. Dans un monde globalise, les debats autour de la migration et de l'identite (inter)culturelle necessitent une prise en compte des enjeux souleves par l'auto-comprehension culturelle. Dans ce contexte, une etude des evolutions a long terme des dynamiques identitaires, ainsi que des mises en perspective a la fois historiques et interdisciplinaires, s'impose. L'ouvrage reunit bilans et reflexions savantes sur la migration envisagee au croisement de l'histoire culturelle, de l'histoire de l'education et de la litterature comparee, se concentrant particulierement sur les identites interculturelles en relation avec des regions frontalieres : ces espaces jusqu'a present peu explores sont profondement investis par des processus d'hybridation caracteristiques de toute forme de migration. Un large faisceau d'etudes historico-culturelles s'interroge sur les aspects interculturels de la migration, s'installant au coeur des discussions contemporaines sur les rapports entre la culture et l'identite.
