'Migration: past, present and future' with Professor Ian Goldin

Join us at the Oxford launch of Professor Ian Goldin’s latest book The Shortest History of Migration. This talk was co-hosted by the Oxford Literary Festival. Ian will show how migration since the emergence of early humans has shaped human progress, and been at the catalyst for the development of knowledge and civilisations. Migration is seldom totally voluntary, and leads to profound changes in the sending and destination countries, and to the migrants themselves. Professor Ian Goldin, Professor of Globalisation and Development, will provide historical perspectives on current debates regarding the scale, implications and future of migration.
