Abstract

"There is currently a great deal of concern about character and dimensions of East-West migration to Europe. By seeing this movement and potential movement in a comparative and historical setting, some understanding of the overall dynamics of labour flows in a 150 year period is gained. Key worldwide migratory movements are identified, focusing particularly on migration from Europe to the colonies and the U.S. successive periods of migration to Europe and the contemporary and projected movements to Europe from the 'East' and the 'South'. The political and social status of the migrants is also assessed."
