Funded Activity Summary

The history and mechanisms of modern migration: the British case 1780-1914. The roots of modern migration reside in fundamental agrarian changes which always occur when modern societies embark along the road to industrialisation (such as in Britain in the industrial revolution). These structural changes in the rest of the world are the generic sources of most of Australia's immigrants, past and present. This project investigates the fundamental causes of very long term migration flows which remain largely unexplained.
