Between the mid-nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries, an influx of Europeans, Asians, and Arabic speakers indelibly changed the face of Latin America. While many studies of this period focus on why the immigrants came to the region, this volume addresses how the newcomers helped construct national identities in the Caribbean, Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil.
In these essays, some of the most respected scholars of migration history examine the range of responses—some welcoming, some xenophobic—to the newcomers. They also look at the lasting effects that Jewish, German, Chinese, Italian, and Syrian immigrants had on the economic, sociocultural, and political institutions. These explorations of assimilation, race formation, and transnationalism enrich our understanding not only of migration to Latin America but also of the impact of immigration on the construction of national identity throughout the world.

The often fragile and conflict-ridden history of the Jews of the Bohemian Lands and later of Czechoslovakia, in an atmosphere of multiethnicity and modern nationalism, has in the past few years become part of extensive scholarly research. The aim of our website is to provide information on current research projects and activity related to this field. All the projects and activities have at least one thing in common – namely, an effort to put Bohemian and Czechoslovak Jewish history into the European context and to emphasize a transnational and interdisciplinary methodology.

The inauguration of Moscow's Jewish Museum last year sent a positive message to Russia's Jewish community. Just as important though is its mission to spread values of tolerance and inclusion through the country.

En su novela de viaje Tahat shmei Mexico (Bajo el cielo de México), el autor israelí Smadar Herzfeld crea un triangulo de identidades entre alemanes, israelíes y mexicanos. Escrita en hebreo, la novela narra el viaje de una joven israelí y una joven alemana a México. La travesía por un Nuevo Mundo tan “extraño” como extranjero no sólo sirve para cuestionar el vínculo entre judíos y alemanes en el Viejo Mundo, sino también para exponer los límites de la identidad individual en un mundo globalizado. Podemos aprovechar el dialogismo con que el autor construye y deconstruye a “turistas” y “autóctonos” en su historia, para preguntarnos cómo el destino turístico se convierte en una 'tierra de fuga' en donde se replantean insospechados mestizajes del planeta.
