Description

Deals with the classic dispersed minorities, the Jews & the Gypsies, as well as the Muslims of the Balkans & the massive diaspora of Germans in eastern Europe from the middle ages to 1945. Almost all European countries have disadvantaged ethnic & linguistic minorities: whether minorities without their own states, such as the Bretons, Scots, Vlachs & Kurds; or those, such as the Russians in Estonia or the Greeks in Turkey, who form linguistic & ethnic groups different to the native majorities. Since WW2, the demand for cheap labor has led to an influx of immigrants from the Caribbean, India & Africa. This followed an earlier wave of workers from the relatively poor Mediterranean countries who traveled north to the industrial heartlands. Maps.
