Discovering History - Migration to Australia

Enhanced by immigration case studies, 21st Century explores migration to Australia during that time period. The book explains that Australia is now one of the most culturally diverse countries in the world due to major changes in Australia’s immigration policy during the last twenty years. It explores the reasons why people migrate and the impact of increased migration on Australia’s first peoples – the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Migration to Australia explores migration to the Australian continent, from the very first settlement many thousands of years ago, to subsequent arrivals. It details the colonisation of the 18th century, the steady increase of British free settlers in the 19th, and the waves of migration from different parts of the world in the 20th and 21st centuries.
