Sinossi

<p>Ireland has been shaped by centuries of emigration as millions escaped poverty, famine, religious persecution, and war. But what happens when we reconsider this well-worn history by exploring the ways Ireland has also been shaped by immigration?</p><p>From slave markets in Viking Dublin to social media use by modern asylum seekers, <i>Migration and the Making of Ireland</i> identifies the political, religious, and cultural factors that have influenced immigration to Ireland over the span of four centuries. A senior scholar of migration and social policy, Bryan Fanning offers a rich understanding of the lived experiences of immigrants. Using firsthand accounts of those who navigate citizenship entitlements, gender rights, and religious and cultural differences in Ireland, Fanning reveals a key yet understudied aspect of Irish history. </p><p>Engaging and eloquent, <i>Migration and the Making of Ireland</i> provides long overdue consideration to those who made new lives in Ireland even as they made Ireland new.</p>
