“…The measures did not stop the migration: at the same time, weavers from Valenciennes continued to people the Calvinist Walloon community of Canterbury where the registers of marriage record their presence until the middle of the 17 th century (Hovenden, 1894). The migrants' motivations are manifold (Frijhoff, 1998;Lucassen and De Vries, 2001: 24). But they touched on the link between subject and king, believer and faith, individual and family, worker and professional network or community.…”

“…The fighting spirit of an exclusive Catholicism in the wake of the Tridentine Reformation permeated the society of the reconciled Low Countries (Lottin, 2013;Pollman, 2011). And this impacted the relations with the neighbouring countries, where refugee communities had been established since the beginning of the Dutch Revolt (Esser, 1996;Frijhoff, 1998;Schilling, 1972;Spicer, 1997). Therefore, the interactions between residents of the Spanish Low Countries, returnees and exiles of different religious beliefs on both sides of the boundaries of the reconciled provinces, might put to the test the process of reconciliation.…”

ABSTRACT:This article contributes to the assessment of the management of migrants at the end of the 16 th century as part of the challenge, by both central and municipal authorities, for ending the civil war in the Spanish Low Countries. In particular, it questions to what extent experiences of exiles, returnees and migrants presented a challenge for families, economic regulation and public order in the French-speaking reconciled provinces (Hainaut, Artois and the Walloon Flanders), in the new framework of the pacification and religious normalization. It focuses on how did the towns, when confronted with various forms of mobility, attempt to apply the practice of reconciliation. On the one hand, the general policy of reconciliation tried to build a post bellum society under the Roman Catholic faith and the King's sovereignty, not only by excluding those who refused to recant in order to conform to the rules of the pacification, but also by forgiving and reincorporating the migrants who crossed confessional boundaries. Then, it considers how, at their level, the municipal authorities had to take various patterns of migration into account, in particular those that connected most of the towns of the Union of Arras to the Protestant Refuge in England and the Dutch Republic, reducing the importance of the migrants' religious status in their selection criteria. Finally, theses practices opened a space for discussion and a shy civic toleration between the Catholic aldermen, the ex-Calvinists who had chosen official reconciliation, and the textile workers migrants while still being accommodated and welcomed into the exile Protestant Churches, relegating the debate about personal confessional practices and religion from public space to the family sphere. KEYWORDS: RESUMEN: Exiliados-migrantes y reconciliación en los Países Bajos después de la Paz de Arras (1579).-Este artículo tiene como objetivo entender la gestión de los emigrantes a finales del siglo XVI como parte del objetivo de terminar la guerra civil en los Países Bajos Españoles al que se enfrentaron tanto autoridades centrales como locales. En concreto, ese texto plantea hasta qué punto las experiencias de exilio, retorno y migración representaron un desafío para las familias que lo sufrieron y para la regulación económica y el orden público en las provincias de habla francesa reconciliadas con el monarca (Hainaut, Artois y la Flandes Valona) en el marco de la pacificación y normalización religiosa. El análisis se concentra en cómo las ciudades intentan poner en práctica la reconciliación a la hora de hacer frente a varias formas de movilidad. Por un lado, la política general de reconciliación intentó construir una sociedad de postguerra en torno al catolicismo romano y la soberanía del rey, no solamente excluyendo a aquellos que se negaron a retractarse para acogerse a la política de pacificación, sino también perdonando y reincorporando a los emigrantes que cruzaban las fronteras confesionales. Por otro lado, las autoridades municipales tuvieron que tener en...
