Combining methodological and theoretical approaches to migration and mobility studies with detailed analyses of historical, cultural, or social phenomena, the works collected here provide an interdisciplinary perspective on how migrations and mobility altered identities and affected images of the "other." From walkways to railroads to airports, the history of travel provides a context for considering the people and events that have shaped Central and Eastern Europe and Russia.
Migration and Mobility in the Modern Age is a much welcomed and topical publication, as it eloquently examines the numerous forms of movement from and across Central, Eastern Europe and Russia from a historical perspective and within a transregional framework. The interdisciplinary and transnational character of the volume departs from single country studies and offers an invitation to discuss the region comparatively and bring mobility in dialogue with similar phenomena elsewhere. In this sense, as well as many others, it succeeds admirably.
