During the 1920s and 1930s, France experienced a sudden, massive immigration wave as foreigners, responding to postwar labor shortages, poured into French industry. These migrants came from bordering countries, the traditional source of foreign workers, and from Poland and other Eastern European nations, new sources of manpower. These arrivals created a non-native population of unprecedented size and diversity and contributed to a growing multi-ethnic workforce and society. For employers, officials, natives, and immigrants, integrating foreigners into French institutions and life raised a host of economic, administrative, political, and sociocultural challenges.

520 $a During the 1920s and 1930s, France experienced a sudden, massive immigration wave as foreigners, responding to postwar labor shortages, poured into French industry. These migrants came from bordering countries, the traditional source of foreign workers, and from Poland and other Eastern European nations, new sources of manpower. These arrivals created a non-native population of unprecedented size and diversity and contributed to a growing multi-ethnic workforce and society. For employers, officials, natives, and immigrants, integrating foreigners into French institutions and life raised a host of economic, administrative, political, and sociocultural challenges.
520 $a This dissertation takes a case-study approach, focusing on the coal-rich departement of the Pas-de-Calais and its large Polish community between the World Wars. Combining attention to national trends with close analysis of local and regional developments, it examines how the desires, policies, and actions of managers, state officials, the French population, and the foreigners themselves helped and hindered the integration of Poles into Pas-de-Calais mines and towns. The study reveals the importance of the local context in shaping French-immigrant relations. Indeed, coal firm policies in the mines, law enforcement in the departement, and the attitudes of coal basin natives and Poles on the streets frequently influenced the foreigners' economic and social position far more than the directives of the central government. Refining current scholarship, the study reveals that, in industry, the immigrants' presence reinforced modernization efforts. In the social realm, it shows that strong Polish ethnic institutions helped isolate the immigrants from French society, but it also reveals that native xenophobia widened the chasm separating Poles and Frenchmen. Regarding the state, it brings to light the hostility that Pas-de-Calais officialdom held toward Poles, enmity that produced ethnic discrimination. Thus, the investigation calls into question aspects of French republicanism, revealing the Third Republic as a regime willing to compromise its pro-assimilation ideals and one in which prejudiced local officials enforced immigration laws in anti-republican ways.
