Description

In 1939, as war loomed, Peter Gumbel’s Jewish-born grandparents fled Nazi Germany for England. But within a matter of decades, their grandson, appalled by the Brexit referendum, had become a citizen of the country they fled eighty years ago. How had it come to this? Drawing on one family’s migration stories, Citizens of Everywhere explores the nature of belonging amid cycles of pluralism and nationalism. In an increasingly global world, nativist and diasporic impulses pull many people in contradictory directions that can be difficult to even understand. In Citizens of Everywhere, Gumbel grapples with this complexity through his own family history, revealing the personal costs of Britain’s recent isolationist retreat. Along the way, he laments the decline of British pluralism at the worst possible moment—as it rejects the European project and engages in an ill-fated struggle against an ever more interconnected world. 

Author Biography:

Peter Gumbel started his career in Brussels and Copenhagen for Reuters before joining the Wall Street Journal. He has also worked for Time and Fortune magazines and, since 2006, has taught at Sciences Po in Paris, as well as working as the university's Communications Director. He has published a series of essays with the French publisher Grasset and won a number of awards for his journalism, including those of the Overseas Press Club and Work Foundation.
