Description

Explore the historical impact of migration on London's economic landscape. This Routledge publication examines how political and religious refugees shaped the city during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Rather than a modern phenomenon, immigration during this era drove significant changes across Europe. Between 1550 and 1585, approximately 50,000 Dutch and Walloons from the southern Netherlands settled in England. This was followed in the late seventeenth century by 50,000 Huguenots from France. As these groups moved across the continent, many moved toward London, which was already a center for merchants and artisans. This book tracks how these influxes contributed to a major transformation of the city. By bringing in new skills, capital, and technical knowledge, these immigrant populations helped change the industrial and commercial trajectory of London. It provides a detailed look at how movement and settlement influenced the development of urban industries during these two centuries.
