Download or read book Asian Migrants in Europe written by Sylvia Hahn and published by V&R unipress GmbH. This book was released on 2014 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the renewal of Asian migration to Europe that began in the late 18th century while still in the frame of the colonial regime. It counters the construction of an unchanging East versus a dynamic West developed in the 19th century; of static, rooted populations versus adventurous young men seeking opportunities afar (the producers of this cliche overlooked migrating women). These essays provide analyses of some of the migrants from the different societies of Asia in Europe. They focus on migrants from East and South Asia and explore their different experiences in Europe from the 18th century to the present.
