Appropriation, Affiliation and Milieu: Overlapping Identities of Eastern European Immigrants in Paris
The paper discusses the processes of becoming local of immigrants from Eastern Europe in Paris 1880-1940. It examines the different identitarian ressources used and transformed used by these immigrants to locate themselves in Parisian society. Immigrants tend to emphasize religious, regional, social or national aspects of affiliation ot identity depending on their motives of migration, their social and cultural background, the expectations and impositions from French society and administration and, most importantly, the actual – topographical and symbolic – social environment they find themselves in. These different – individual and collective – approaches result in different forms of appropriation processes, ranging from complete assimilation to the forming of fully developped immigrant quarters, precariously accepted by their French neighbours and French administration.
