This open access book uncovers one important, yet forgotten, form of itinerant livelihoods, namely petty trade, more specifically how it was practiced in Northern Europe during the period 1820–1960. It investigates how traders and customers interacted in different spaces and approaches ambulatory trade as an arena of encounters by looking at everyday social practices. Petty traders often belonged to subjugated social groups, like ethnic minorities and migrants, whereas their customers belonged to the resident population. How were these mobile traders perceived and described? What goods did they peddle? How did these commodities enable and shape trading encounters? What kind of narratives can be found, and whose? These questions pertaining to daily practices on a grass-root level have not been addressed in previous research. Encounters and Practices embarks on hidden histories of survival, vulnerability, and conflict, but also discloses reciprocal relations, even friendships.

This collection analyses the concept of minority and minorities in global history. Taking transnational, transregional and comparative approaches, it explores narratives of inclusion and exclusion both conceptually and through case studies. Exploring examples of marginalization in Imperial Russia, early-20th century Korea, WWII China and Postcolonial Africa amongst others, the chapters in this volume seek to understand the entanglements of 'fluid minorities' and native populations in various historical settings. They explore dynamics between nation states and empires, minority-majority processes in (post)imperial and (post)Soviet contexts, fourth world perspectives and transnational minority movements. Taken together, the contributions to this collection address the exposure to and challenge of historical and contemporary treatments of marginalization, exclusion, belonging and inclusion in global history.

Defining the Others, “them”, in relation to one’s own reference group, “us”, has been an essential phase in the formation of collective identities in any given country or region. In the case of Russia, the formulation of these binary definitions – sometimes taking a form of enemy images – can be traced all the way to medieval texts, in which religion represented the dividing line. Further, the ongoing expansion of the empire transferred numerous “external others” into internal minorities. The chapters of this edited volume examine the development and contexts of various images, perceptions and categories of the Others in Russia from the 16th century Muscovy to the collapse of the Russian empire.

Ben Raphilo var en man som kunde vika ihop sig själv och stoppa in sig i en påse. Han var en av hundratals personer som åkte runt i 1800-talets svenska städer och erbjöd några ögonblicks förundran – ett magiskt avbrott i det vanliga livet. Underhållarkulturen som han var en del av hade särskilda förutsättningar. Vi kan i boken bekanta oss med underhållningsgenrer såsom magi, menagerier, panoramor, vaxkabinett och akrobatik och får en överblick över den förunderliga värld som var 1800-talets underhållning. Med utgångspunkt i annonser i svensk press undersöker Leif Runefelt hur marknaden för förundran såg ut i Sverige. Han vill visa att aktörerna stundom kunde åtnjuta en ganska hög status och uppskattas, inte bara av marknadspubliken utan också av städernas borgerskap. De här konstutövarna var oftast verksamma på marknader men de var inga enkla marknadsgycklare utan skickliga yrkesmän och yrkeskvinnor som lika gärna kunde uppträda i rådhusen. Genom sin förmåga att med sina egna kroppar, djur eller föremål visa upp företeelser som gick långt bortom småstädernas vardag lyckades de locka både hög och låg – i ett land på tröskeln till det moderna.

Was Arbeit war, ist oder sein soll, versteht sich nicht von selbst. Arbeit war und ist Gegenstand und Produkt von Auseinandersetzungen. Die Beiträge des Bandes reflektieren am Beispiel Österreichs von ca. 1918–1938 verschiedene Facetten aktueller internationaler Forschungsdebatten zur Geschichte von Arbeit und folgen dabei einem gemeinsamen Forschungsprogramm. Sie stellen eine Vielfalt an Streit- und Grenzfällen in den Mittelpunkt, mit und gegen die Arbeit (in einem neuen Sinn) durchgesetzt wurde. Die Autor/innen untersuchen anhand verschiedener Beispiele, wie Hierarchien und Unterschiede von Erwerbs- und Unterhaltspraktiken erzeugt und verhandelt wurden: im Zusammenhang von Arbeitsmarktverwaltung, Haushalten, anhand von selbstständigen Erwerben, dem Musik-Machen, den unterschiedlichen Sanktionen von Nicht-Arbeit. Über Legitimität oder Illegitimität von Praktiken entschied nicht bloß, ob diese (noch) als Arbeit anerkannt werden konnten. Auch Beruf, Ansprüche und Pflichten des Sorgens und Versorgtseins waren praktisch relevant. Über Sozialpolitik und Verwaltung hinausgehend, beziehen die Autor/innen systematisch die Perspektiven derer in ihre Überlegungen mit ein, die sich auf mehr oder minder legitime Weisen einen Unterhalt verschafften.

A landmark comparative history of Europe and China that examines why the Industrial Revolution emerged in the West The Great Divergence sheds light on one of the great questions of history: Why did sustained industrial growth begin in Northwest Europe? Historian Kenneth Pomeranz shows that as recently as 1750, life expectancy, consumption, and product and factor markets were comparable in Europe and East Asia. Moreover, key regions in China and Japan were no worse off ecologically than those in Western Europe, with each region facing corresponding shortages of land-intensive products. Pomeranz’s comparative lens reveals the two critical factors resulting in Europe's nineteenth-century divergence—the fortunate location of coal and access to trade with the New World. As East Asia’s economy stagnated, Europe narrowly escaped the same fate largely due to favorable resource stocks from underground and overseas. This Princeton Classics edition includes a preface from the author and makes a powerful historical work available to new readers.

In this volume the authors present an alternative approach to the history of gypsies and travelling groups in western Europe. By focusing on processes of social construction, stigmatization and categorization, they offer new insights into the development of government policies towards itinerants in general and the ethnicization of some of these groups in particular. They analyze the western images and representations of gypsies and other itinerant groups, at the same time focusing on their functions for the labour market. By doing so, they add a new chapter to the field of social history.

This is the first work on British textile exports to South America during the nineteenth century. During this period, textiles ranked among the most important manufactures traded in the world market and Britain was the foremost producer. Thanks to new data, this book demonstrates that British exports to South America were transacted at very high rates during the first decades after independence. This development was due to improvements in the packing of textiles; decreasing costs of production and introduction of free trade in Britain; falling ocean freight rates, marine insurance and import duties in South America; dramatic improvements in communications; and the introduction of better port facilities. Manuel Llorca-Jaña explores the marketing chain of textile exports to South America and sheds light on South Americans' consumer behaviour. This book contains the most comprehensive database on Anglo-South American trade during the nineteenth century and fills an important gap in the historiography.
