Annual Lecture Series No. 6 PEOPLE ON THE MOVE: Migration, Acculturation, and Ethnic Interaction in Europe and North America Dirk Hoerder Comment Donna Gabaccia Migration toward a New World Order A Comment James Oliver Horton BERG Providence / Oxford First published in 1993 by Berg Publishers 221 Waterman Street, Providence, RI 02906 U.S.A. 150 Cowley Road, Oxford OX4 1JJ, UK for the German Historical Institute 1607 New Hampshire Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20009 U.S.A. © German Historical Institute 1993 Printed in the United States of America Introduction Topics related to the history of migration have been discussed in our Annual Lectures a number of times: In 1987, Bernard Bailyn examined the role of Protestant peasants and Jewish intellectuals in the peopling of America; in 1988, Carl Degler compared the thought of two major immigrant scholars on culture and race; in 1989, Kathleen Conzen analyzed the meaning of assimilation theory for our understanding of the experience of the German peasant pioneer. In the year of the Columbian Quincentennial, it seemed appropriate to probe, once again, the theme of "people on the move." Looking at current events in Europe, it is quite clear that the consequences of migration, namely acculturation and ethnic interaction, are problems of European as well as American history. Five hundred years ago, the peoples of the Old World first encountered the peoples of the world across the Atlantic-a world that was an old world in its own right but that soon received the label "New World" by the newcomers.

  • 1. Region of Warmia and Mazury
    1. Region of Warmia and Mazury The beauty of the region is the charming and picturesque greenery, more than 2000 lakes and a large area of forests. That’s why our region is called The land of thousand lakes (Inspired by tales of One Thousand and One Nights). The area of Warmia and Mazury are in fact two historic provinces, joined into one because of their location close to each other. They are located in northern Poland, near the border with Russia and east of the lower Vistula River. Region is a paradise for sailors, joined into several sailing routes, it offer excellent conditions not only for sailing, but also canoeing and other water sports. Once there, you can find historical signs dating back to the times of the Crusader Knights, Prussian rule and World War II.

Through the Yalta Conference and Potsdam Conference of 1945 the victorious Allies divided East Prussia into the two parts now known as Oblast Kaliningrad (in Russia) and the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship (in Poland). People was evacuated or fled the advancing Red Army in 1945.

  • Fluid Identities in Central European Borderlands
    02_EHQ 31/4 articles 15/10/01 12:54 pm Page 519 Peter Thaler Fluid Identities in Central European Borderlands The debate about the nature of national identity has been passionate and complex, and it has not led to convincing, gener- ally applicable models. In this article, the manner in which this identity expresses itself at its margins provides a new perspective on the broader theoretical issue. The sense-of-self of historical Central European border populations highlights the subjective component of group identities. In the countries of Central Europe, the conceptual dichotomy of Staatsnation and Kulturnation, introduced into the scholarly debate by Friedrich Meinecke, continues to dominate academic discourse — notwithstanding its theoretical expansion and criti- cal revision.1 The Staatsnation, which signifies the political or civic nation, is constructed around the citizenry of a politically organized territory, in other words, a state, regardless of the ethnic and cultural composition of this citizenry and of possible ethnocultural continuities beyond the existing political borders. It is sometimes defined as a constitutional nation when it de- marcates the nation by the reach of a liberal constitution; this reach will normally correspond to the political frontiers of a state. Its dependence on a specific constitutional content gives this conceptual variation a normative rather than an empirical character, since even internal revisions of the political structure would terminate the existing constitutional nation. The con- cept resembles the comparably ideology-based, if politically diametrically opposed, class nation, which periodically provided the theoretical foundation of the German Democratic Republic and was envisioned to create a structure of coherence for Soviet Man.

Geopolitics of the Kaliningrad Exclave and Enclave: Russian and EU Perspectives Alexander Diener and Joshua Hagen1 Abstract: Two U.S. political geographers examine a range of geopolitical issues associated with the shifting sovereignty of Russia’s Kaliningrad Oblast (a part of the former German province of East Prussia) during the 20th century, as well as the region’s evolving geopolitical status as a consequence of the European Union’s enlargement to embrace Poland and Lithu- ania. They argue that Kaliningrad today can be considered a “double” borderland, situated simultaneously on the European Union’s border with Russia as well as physically separated from Russia, its home country, by the surrounding land boundaries of EU states. Although technically neither an exclave nor an enclave, they posit that in many ways it resembles both, and as such presents a unique set of problems for economic development and interstate rela- tions.

Borowski certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Online Conflict Discourse, Identity, and the Social Imagination of Silesian Minority in Poland Co-Chair: Marc L. Greenberg Co-Chair: Renee Perelmutter Date Approved: 29 April 2020 iii Abstract The second decade of the twenty-first century has been that of digital nationalism. In particular, the 2016 United States presidential elections and Brexit vote in the United Kingdom have shown that the increased use of social media has raised popular nationalism (Whitmeyer 2002) to a whole new level. While Europe and other parts of the world have visibly become more globalized, the Northern Atlantic region has witnessed a contradictory tendency for the rise and spread of nationalist sentiment. Much of this phenomenon has been taking place on the internet where conditions of apparent anonymity created a fertile ground for uninhibited identity expressions and performances. From the United States to Poland, people have retreated to their stable, national identities as a way of coping with the various facets of liquid modernity, in which the need for networking pushes individuals to engage in community building by bonding with other individuals through shared emotions (Bauman 2006, 37).

When language was legislated into the statistical measure of nationality in the second half of the nineteenth century, Berlin pressured the Slavophone Catholic peasant-cum-worker population of Upper Silesia to become ‘proper Germans’, this is, German-speaking and Protestant. To the German ennationalizing2 pressure the Polish equivalent was added after the division of Upper Silesia between Poland and Germany in 1922. The borders and ennationalizing policies changed in 1939 when the entire region was reincorporated into wartime Germany, and, again, in 1945 following the incorporation of Upper Silesia into postwar Poland.

  • The Determination of Nationality in Selected European Countries up to 1938 OPEN ACCESS
    The Determination of Nationality in Selected European Countries up to 1938 OPEN ACCESS Dan Gawrecki KEY WORDS: European History — Nationalism — Cisleithania — Ethnicity The topic of this study1 was chosen in the knowledge that the assessment and evalu- ation of census practices in Cisleithania and in post-1918 Czechoslovakia2 necessar- ily requires comparison at least with practices in neighbouring countries. The deter- mination of respondents’ nationality was always associated with various polemics which became part of the political struggle, and the census data was frequently called into doubt. Here I attempt to summarize various opinions on the relevance and cred- ibility of census practices — opinions expressed by journalists and historiographers, both at the time of the censuses and also at a later date. Attention will primarily be fo- cused on Germany and Poland — firstly due to the sizeable German and Polish minor- ities in the Czechoslovak Republic, and secondly because the main criterion for na- tionality in these two countries was language; nationality was generally not equated with citizenship of a state. The findings presented here are based on statistical data, supported by other sources and numerous scholarly studies of the subject. I trace how the concept of nationality gradually shifted under specific historical conditions, and I observe the changing criteria that were used as a basis for the determination of nationality from the time of the first censuses to contemporary approaches and evaluations. Only marginal attention is paid to the evaluation of Czechoslovak cen- sus practices in foreign literature; this is dealt with only in cases when it forms part of the wider general or comparative context.

  • Iscellanea M
    Historical Biography of Warmia and Masuria 729 M ISCELLANEA Stanisław Achremczyk HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY OF WARMIA AND MASURIA Słowa kluczowe: Warmia i Mazury, biografie, kultura, nauka, historia Schlüsselwörter: Ermland und Masuren, Biographie, Kultur, Wissenschaft, Historie Keywords: Warmia and Masuria, biographies, culture, science, history The incorporation of South East Prussia into the Polish state and its settle- ment by settlers from different parts of the Republic of Poland posed the question of how to build a regional identity, how to break off with the sense of temporari- ness that has long dominated the lives of the inhabitants, how to finally familiarize them with the cultural landscape and the history of the lands called Warmia and Masuria. Historical research was supposed to help build a regional identity and this was obvious to people of culture, even to people of politics. The history of Polish presence in Warmia and Masuria in particular was supposed to be a binding agent uniting people and confirming that they are not intruders on this land but a continuation of historical settlement processes. In order to show such processes, first, it was necessary to build a workshop of historical research in the form of book collections, archives, iconography and museum collections, and secondly, to organise a research team and humanities environment in Olsztyn. While thanks to the generosity of Emilia Sukertowa-Biedrawina, Bishop Jan Obłąk, Dr. Władysław Adamczyk, and Hieronim Skurpski, the priceless archival collections, book collec- tions and painting collections were saved from destruction, the creation of a team of serious researchers required some time. It also required institutional solutions.
