		These pioneer moves could have had the soporific effect that the migration of the Philistines had on them about the same time as the Israelites were transforming themselves from nomadic stock-breeders into sedentary tillers on stony, barren and landlocked highlands and pasture-lands east of Jordan and south of Hebron.
		But I found these moves, like the Volkerwanderungs, that is the wanderings, of the past, those of the Ionians, the Angles, the Scots and the Scandinavians, possessed an intrinsic stimulus.
		If such are the most general perspectives on time in relation to where I am in history, the spiritual axis, mentioned by Shoghi Effendi in his 1957 letter, and a series of concentric circles define the spacial parameters of my life, in several interlocked and not unimportant ways.

		But then there is a case to be made that the whole world is in the grip of a volkerwanderung.
		It was an off-the-cuff remark, but I was thinking of the manner in which significant migration is stressing the immigration systems of the righer countries such as the European Union, Canada, Australia the US and to a lesser extent Malaysia and the Philippines.
		I had thought of it as a low grade, gradual, volkerwanderung, not the sort of mass hunger-driven volkerwanderung that I was expecting in southern Africa.

	Weekly Worker 467 Thursday February 13 2003
		Chapter 1, discussing this process, focuses in particular on the development in Germany and the central roles of philology (the study of historical relationships between languages) and later of early archaeology - in particular the ‘ethnoarchaeology’ which sought to map language groupings by forms of material culture.
		Out of these came the general narrative of the Volkerwanderung, a set of processes of mass migration in the 5th and 6th centuries during and after the fall of the western Roman empire.
		This (allegedly) brought various Germanic and later Slavic peoples, defined by their distinctive languages and cultures, from their places of origin to found the European nations within and outside the former Roman borders: Saxons to England, Franks to France, Lombards to northern Italy, and so on.

		These challenges may be physical, as when the Minoans conquered the sea; or social, as when Athens reacted to the Persian onslaught.
		The cycle of civilization comprises two major phases: a "universal state", such as the Roman Empire, that arises out of a time of troubles; and an "interregnum" dominated by a higher religion and a "Volkerwanderung" (migration) of barbarians in a heroic age.
		To Toynbee, only Western Christian civilization was in a thriving state, the others having gone through the three stages of breakdown: 1) a failure of creative power in the creative minority; 2) the withdrawal of allegiance to the ruling minority on the part of the majority; and 3) the consequent loss of social unity.

		Some stayed in the gloomy northland; others scattered across the immensity of the North American continent until they reached the ocean; others pushed their way through the cordilleras and the rain forests of Middle America and their campfires burned in the rare, chill air of the Andes.
		This invasion must have begun between 10,000 and 7000 B.C.; by 5000 B.C. it was in full swing--a great Volkerwanderung that still had not ended when European explorers burst upon America.
		The race that appropriated what was then a manless, primordial wilderness was a small, tough, dark, almost incredibly hardy breed.

		Most cultures in hf are based on the European, often as a mishmash of Roman Empire, Dark Ages, and high Middle Ages with a bit of Pharaonic Egypt, Asian nomadism, and so forth on the fringes.
		And indeed, the western end of the Eurasian continent was a rather similar potpourri during the Volkerwanderung period (if you regard the Byzantine Empire as the civilized core of Christendom).
		I do think the time is overpast for drawing inspiration from other milieus — Oriental, Near Eastern, North and Black African, Amerindian, Polynesian, an entire world — and am happy to see that several writers have begun doing so.

		But what has all this to do, it may be asked, with the aforementioned Volkerwanderung, or migration of peoples, during the Dark Ages?
		Some of the so-called migrations were, I suspect, not at all migrations in the ordinary sense of the term, but rather gradual changes, such as those which have taken place, and are still taking place, in Northern Russia.
		In a quiet, sleepy provincial town I should have much more chance of coming in contact with people who could not speak fluently any West-European languages, and much better opportunities for studying native life and local administration.

		Germanic plunderers and settlers of the late Roman Empire would follow these routes south into Italy to sack Rome and to gradually take over the Italian peninsula during the Volkerwanderung.
		During the Middle Ages, pilgrims and German emperors would cross the various alpine passes on their way to Rome, the seat of the papacy.

		Jordanes attributed a distant origin to the Goths, an island called Scandza, which many belive today to be Scandinavia
		he is also responsible for the idea that the Goths left Scandza because of overpopulation, an idea well attuned to the modern concept of migration => historians believe that Volkerwanderung had economic causes

		Neal even suggests that the potential for mass migrations is there.
		Such a mass movement of population from east to west, known to history as the Volkerwanderung, or “the migration of the peoples,” actually occurred in the early Middle Ages, and it is the specter of similar surges that frightens West Europeans in their comfortable prosperity and excites their xenophobia.
		One example among many is a recent and rather sensationalist feature story entitled the “Storming of the Refugees” in the leading German news magazine, Der Spiegel.

		We might conclude preliminarily that these migrations are a one-way street.
		This being the case, let us ask in the tradition of a dispassionate Western inquiry, what determines this Volkerwanderung, an old German term meaning the migrations of peoples?
		Marxism-fed postmodernists and multiculturalists, as well as other birds of the same feather, usually react to that question in the Pavlovian manner and answer in terms of the Marxian "base." They say that it is the "base" or economy that determines the superstructure, which is the politics.
