Migration and nationalism are two historical phenomena that strongly influence each other. Using selected global historical examples of Japanese migration history – such as Japanese migrants in the USA, Brazil or Korea – since the 1880s, Frank Jacob examines this connection in more detail. He shows how Japanese imperialism and anti-migratory nationalism equally determine the migration experience of those who – and not always voluntarily – set out to start a new life in another country in the context of Japanese and global history at the end of the 19th century. Jacob sheds light on the global connection between migration and nationalism and draws parallels with today's migration policy debates, which are characterized by similar dynamics.
