Offers a new model of the way in which migrants in the past claimed rights and the obstacles placed in their way by communities and the State. Focus makes it ideal reading for those with interests in migrant rights and state obligations in the ever-expanding EU. Wide coverage of European states, including those – Switzerland and Prussia for instance – that have a limited alternative literature in English. Explodes ingrained myths of English exceptionalism and sets England firmly within the context of a European superstructure well before the later twentieth century.
