Description
The Shortest History of Migration by Ian Goldin For centuries, the ability to travel and adapt has been crucial to the survival of our species. Yet, as governments build stronger barriers, this fundamental human impulse is being tested like never before. Ian Goldin's book tells a story of migration that spans every age and continent, exploring what makes us human in the face of empire, slavery, and war. Drawing on ancient records and the latest genetic research, Goldin recounts the complex and often tragic tales of migrants past and present. He examines the legacies of these events and brings together historical evidence with recent data to suggest a more humane future, one that harnesses the benefits of migration to build a better world. By exploring the intricate relationships between migration, human identity, and societal well-being, Goldin offers a compelling vision for a more inclusive and progressive world.
