Encyclopedia "Migration in Europe from the 17th century to the present" as a source for studies of migration linguistics

Specialists working in the field of migration linguistics often need factual material that forms the so-called historical context. An invaluable source of this kind for specialists who speak German is the encyclopedia “Migration in Europa. Vom 17. Jahrhundert bis zur Gegenwart” compiled by the team of authors Klaus J. Bade, Pieter C. Emmer, Leo Lucassen and Jochen Oltmer. Individual articles were written by experts on a particular country or on specific migration phenomena. The book has already gone through its third edition, and despite the fact that the information concerned the history of migration until 2010, the data presented in it have not lost their relevance.
