  • Chapter
Immigration and Integration in Post-Industrial Societies

Part of the book series: Migration, Minorities and Citizenship ((MDC))

Abstract

The tendency to migrate is a basic human characteristic. The origin of homo sapiens has not been ascertained beyond all doubt, but experts seem to agree that our species first made its appearance on the African continent and that it has been spreading over the planet ever since. The current dispersion of people around the world has been created through many small- and large-scale migration movements: raids, invasions, conquests, slave trade and colonization as well as pilgrimage and settlement beyond frontier areas.
