Additional Information

Instruction Mode: In Person
We all know people who have moved someplace “for a job.” We probably are still in touch with these people: by phone, by e-mail or by web-cam, maybe even through old-fashioned letters. But what did it mean for people in the past to move for a job? How was moving for work different over a hundred years ago? In this class, we will examine at least three different ways in which people moved to work: moving within a single country, moving across national borders, and moving as a part of the job itself. How did such moves change the lives of both the workers and their families?
