Great Britain

In: Economics of International Migration

Abstract

Since the end of the last world war Great Britain has resumed the traditional function of the motherland of meeting the demand for immigrants from other members of the British Commonwealth. The economic, demographic, social, and political setting for the migration movements which have occurred since 1946 both in Britain and in the receiving countries is significantly different from that which prevailed in any previous period. It seems, therefore, necessary to reassess Britain’s emigration potential in the new setting. This involves a brief appraisal of Britain’s past experience as a country of emigration as well as an analysis of the impact of the inward and outward movements since the end of the war on the British economy.
