The course will examine various recurring themes of migration history including the global forces shaping migration, the encounters between “natives and strangers,” internal migration, the process of naturalization, race and ethnicity, gender and sexuality, and interethnic relations. Much of this course will be centered on classroom dialogue and exercises on the lectures, readings, and sources. We will be examining both primary and secondary sources, continuing debates in immigration history and immigration law and policy, and questions of historical method. As part of the course, all students will be required to complete service with a community partner that serves (im)migrant and refugee populations. Attendance and informed participation in class discussions is mandatory in the course.
