| | Migration Period - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | It is argued that this kind of analysis contributed to the Nazi folk ideology of Lebensraum, or "living space", the theory that the Germans had a mission to expand their population beyond the national borders of Germany. | | | The "invasions" of Romantic-generation historians have given way, too: scholars today hold that a great deal of the migration did not represent hostile invasion, but rather tribes taking the opportunity to enter and settle lands already thinly populated and weakly held by a divided Roman state whose economy was shrinking. | | | The first phase, between AD 300 and 500, largely seen from the Mediterranean perspective, saw the movement of Germanic and other tribes and resulted in putting Germanic peoples in control of most areas of the former Western Roman Empire. |

| | InYThe Migration of Serbs and Montenegrins from Kosovo and Metohija: Results ofthe Survey Conducted in 1985-86, by Ruza Petrovic and Marina Blagojevic, the conclusion is that of 103,000 Serbs and Montenegrins that migrated out of Kosovo, 17% migrated prior to 1961, while 83% migrated during the itwo critical decadesi of the 1960s and 1970s. | | | The first thesis is that the Serbian migrations are inormal migrationsi motivated by ieconomic reasonsi and that other ethnic groups in Kosovo migrated out as well during the same period. | | | The Serbian government sought to resettle Kosovo during the interwar period, 1918-1941, with the colonization programme, which sought to restore ethnic diversity and ethnic balance in Kosovo by settling Orthodox Serbs. |

| | This third and final trans-Pacific migration began soon after the Polynesians sank their roots into Hiva [Marquesas Islands], beginning around 300 A.D. From the Marquesas, the settlement of Eastern Polynesia followed fairly quickly over the next few hundred years. | | | The ancestors of the Polynesian people are believed to be a Caucasian offshoot that reached the islands of the Malay archipelago from the west. | | | The harshness of the North Sea aside, these nautical discoveries are relatively modest when compared to the Polynesian migrations that spanned the vast Pacific Ocean. |

| | We read and hear with dismay how local communities were used by the Germans and Russians to kill their neighbours. | | | Even though one cannot help a feeling that although all those documents are well balanced and express respect towards all parties they left an important issue aside: the fact that cultural diversity of the Union's member states was caused by present and past migrations. | | | The application of social science for political reasons left in the former communist countries enough negative marks which makes me remain on a path leading to a better understanding of the researched process and especially links between the nature of the state, nation and civil society and migrations. |

| | The events of the period are seen by German observers as an "infusion of new blood" into a moribund, stagnant, parasitic, slave-holding, decadent late antique culture by groups of energetic, defiant and formerly oppressed peoples. | | | The idea that the various invading groups of the period were defined simply by ethnicity and blood can easily be seen to be false. | | | Another example of the intermingling of Germans and eastern peoples is the relationship of the Goths and Vandals to the Iranian Alans, who under king Gaiseric merged completely with the East German Siling and Asding Vandals. |

| | For those interested in integrating materials on the new immigrants into GAPE surveys, a good starting place is a syllabus exchange sponsored by the Newberry Library and the Immigration History Society, _Teaching the History of Immigration and Ethnicity_, compiled by Donna Gabaccia and James Grossman. | | | Because the new immigration involved large numbers of sojourners, Mark Wyman's _Round-trip to America_ is a necessary corrective to U.S.-centered views that assume all new arrivals are immigrants. | | | The publication, which is available from the Newberry Library, demonstrates how historians of immigration approach GAPE as well as providing suggestions for readings, film, and student assignments focused on immigrant life during and after this time period. |

| | The three volumes are all sceptical about mass migrations and ambiguous about the concept of ethnic identity and the possibility of inferring it from archaeological evidence. | | | By the 1980s, this 'immobilism' (as Christopher Hawkes called it) had infected a new generation of archaeologists who began to deprive the Migration Period of its migrations. | | | This could describe many migrations in this period. |

| | Bede (672-735) not only wrote in Latin, but was so much preoccupied with the affairs of the church that he viewed the past of his people, whose ecclesiastical history he wrote, entirely through the eyes of a monk. | | | This event is subsequent, therefore, to the first settlement of the Anglo-Saxons on English soil and is contemporaneous with the period of occupation by the swarms of colonists from Sleswick and Holstein that followed the vanguard of their kinsmen. | | | Unfortunately, the writer who was most extensively read, and who, relatively speaking, still stood so near to the pagan period of his people, forms an exception to this use of the native language. |
