Kritik
Winner of the Allan Sharlin Memorial Award for the best book in social science history "An encyclopedic overview of who has moved where and why for the last thousand years." Immanuel Wallerstein, author of World-Systems Analysis: An Introduction "[Cultures in Contact] is of particular importance because Hoerder shows in great detail that it is necessary to move from a focus on the Atlantic migration system in order to give due weight to migration flows in Asia, Africa, and the Pacific world." Jeremy Black The National Interest "This extraordinary book, written on Braudelian scale, is the most complex and comprehensive history of human migration yet." Walter Nugent Pacific Historical Review "A massive and definitive study on migration in the second millennium."oP. G. Wallace Choice "Cultures in Contact is a landmark work, a broad and pioneering interpretation of the scope, patterns, and consequences of human migrations around the globe over the past ten centuries... Hoerder's work links world historical events to global and regional migration flows ... without losing sight of the individual men and women who moved, changed, suffered, prospered, and intermingled with their fellow human beings." Annemarie Steidl European History Quarterly "A truly significant book which derives its authority from cross-cultural primary research, as well as secondary reading, on a scale that few previous authors have attempted." Nicholas Canny History Today "Dirk Hoerder has achieved the enormous feat of moving a field forward by globalizing the study of human movements." Leslie Page Moch Journal of Social History "This book is a milestone in the history of migration." Leo Lucassen International Review of Social History "This is a one-of-a-kind book... [It] holds profound implications for our thinking about modernity and capitalism, culture and nationhood." Jan Nederveen Pieterse Bulletin of the Royal Institute for Inter-Faith Studiesmehr
