| Research Abstract |
The research project aimed to reposition interfacial aspects of marginal groups and regions in the context of modern history. The project focused on minorities and immigrants, which have politically simply been captured as subjects of national integration. It also put its attention on economies at border regions and peddlers, which were thought economically marginal. The project not only testified that these groups and regions were not always of marginal existence but it also proved that they often maintained networks which expanded beyond modern nation systems. Moreover, their transnational activities heavily influenced the formation of the nation states' and economic systems.
