The educational materials on migration show how Europe's borders work, who is involved, and how people are fighting back. They explain what migration and flight mean and tell the story of immigration to Germany. They show how migrant movements have shaped our society—and how we can work today to promote an open and inclusive "society of the many".
Migration has had a profound impact on Germany's history. We take a look at the history of immigration since 1945, highlighting the challenges and struggles faced by migrants and the many ways they‘ve changed German society.
Protest slogans like "No borders, no nations!" are more than just loud words. They are declarations of the struggle against racism, against state violence, against the EU border regime. They stand for a "Society of the Many" – for solidarity, justice and the right to freedom of movement.
In the „Society of the Many“, migration is the foundation of our society. People with different backgrounds live together, fight together for equal rights, and shape society. The Society of the Many is therefore both: a vision for a more just future – and a reality we already experience today.

With the neoliberal reforms that Macron has rapidly implemented, social dialogue between social movements, unions and the government has become more difficult and fragmented. The French trade union movement is split along political lines into several umbrella organizations, and the level of organization has stagnated. The yellow vests have not been able to decisively change Macron's course. But they have rearticulated positions critical of capitalism and class struggle, also taking migrant struggles into the equation.
Since 2014, a coalition led by the right-wing Hindu nationalist BJP, Party of the Indian People, has ruled under Narendra Modi. India competes as a location for manufacturing companies. To attract international private capital, layoffs and crackdowns on unions have been made easier, and state-owned enterprises (including railroads, telecommunications companies and airlines) are to be privatized. In this complex situation, not only traditional unions and federations are organizing, but informal and migrant workers are also becoming part of a movement facing a major socio-political challenge.
