Historical note

Founded in 1993 by New School professor Aristide Zolberg, the International Center for Migration, Ethnicity, and Citizenship (ICMEC) advanced interdisciplinary research on various aspects of past and present patterns of international migration and immigrant integration, in order to better understand their dynamics, the determinants of state policies in this sphere, and the development of global migration regimes. Under Zolberg's leadership, ICMEC led a number of research projects on migration policy, immigrant integration, refugees, religion and immigration in the post-September 11 context. Support for these projects came from Pew Global Stewardship Initiative, Ford Foundation, Rockefeller Foundation, New York Community Trust, Henry Luce Foundation, German-American Academic Foundation/SSRC, U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM), the Pew Charitable Trusts, and the German Marshall Fund, among others.

The Center, part of the New School for Social Research, was renamed the Zolberg Institute on Migration and Mobility in 2014.
