Funded Activity Summary

Law, Literature and Naturalization in an Age of Empire. The history of naturalization offers significant insights into how sociocultural and legal limits on citizenship evolved, and how these limits were imposed and experienced before the advent of border restrictions. Deploying innovative methods at the intersection of literary, legal and cultural history, this project aims to provide the first global account of Jewish naturalization during the British empire’s expansion, a crucial phase in immigration history. This account will generate new knowledge about how minority communities are incorporated into the state. Its benefits include a new framework to document the lives of migrants and refugees and the development of novel cultural resources to address the social challenges of migration.
