Abstract
Firstly, Dirk Hoerder will discuss the overlapping spaces and living cultures in the vast Eastern European migration region. He will connect the region of departure with destinations Far East, Far West, and far elsewhere. Finally, his talk will focus on the micro-spaces that migrants leave, change, develop, or create.
