  Free migration - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Free migration or open immigration is the belief that people should be able to migrate to whatever country they choose, free of substantial barriers.
However, free market economists believe that competition is the essence of a healthy economic system, and that any short-term negative impact on individual economic actors that is caused by free immigration is more than justified by the prospects of long-term growth for the economy as a whole.
In a limited form of free immigration, claimed by critics to be racist, the state of Israel extends citizenship to all persons of Jewish heritage throughout the world.

 Human migration - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Migration and population isolation is one of the four evolutionary forces (along with natural selection, genetic drift, and mutation).
Notable examples of this phenomenon include mass migration of Protestants from the Spanish Netherlands to the Dutch Republic after the 1580s, the expelling of Jews and Moriscos from Spain in the 1590s and the expulsion of the Huguenots from France in the 1680s.
Since the 14th century, the Serbs started leaving the areas of their medieval Kingdom and Empire that was overrun by the Ottoman Turks and migrated to the north, to the lands of today's Vojvodina (northern Serbia), which was ruled by the Kingdom of Hungary at that time.

In its natural origins, it includes the separate migrations first of Homo erectus then of Homo sapiens {Homo sapiens sapiens) out of Africa across Eurasia, doubtless using some of the same available land routes north of the Himalayas that were later to become the Silk Road, and across the Strait of Gibraltar.
However genetic studies have recently shown that the migration dates to the end of the Palaeolithic and that the Neolithic farming revolution was a cultural movement rather than a migration.
That is when hundreds of thousands of Serbs started leaving the areas of their medieval Kingdom and Empire that was overrun by the Turks in the 15th century (Kosovo and Metohija), under the leadership of their patriarchs and Orthodox Church priests, and moved to southern parts of the Kingdom of Hungary, today's Vojvodina, northern Serbia.

 Globalization - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In terms of the controversial global migration issue, disputes revolve around both its causes, whether and to what extent it is voluntary or involuntary, necessary or unnecessary; and its effects, whether beneficial, or socially and environmentally costly.
In general, critics claim that the results of globalization have not been what was predicted when the attempt to increase free trade began, and that many institutions involved in the system of globalization have not taken the interests of poorer nations, the working class, and the environment into account.
Supporters of free trade point out that economic theories of comparative advantage suggest that free trade leads to a more efficient allocation of resources, with all countries involved in the trade benefiting.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Migration
The earliest migration recorded in the Bible was when, after the confusion of tongues, men wandered over the face of the earth (Genesis 11:8) under conditions only vaguely known to-day.
Such migration means to the emigrants the death of a nation, so far as concerns them, while to their new country it brings a serious modification, the extent of which depends upon the relative virility of the newly added national element.
In the last analysis, migration results when the forces of increasing population and decreasing food supply are not in equilibrium, and it tends to equilibration of forces among societies of men: equilibration of food in relation to population; equilibration of rights as related to authority; equilibration of industrial energy as between labour and capital.

 Logic that leads to a plundered world : Melbourne Indymedia
Few would deny that some migration is a good thing, but we are speaking here about free migration, where "free" means "deregulated, uncontrolled, unlimited", as in free trade or free capital mobility.
They also suggest that free migration is the shortest route to their vision of the equality of wages worldwide.
If globalisation advocates refuse to follow their logic and embrace free migration, maybe they should question whether their misgivings about the free flow of people might also apply to the free flow of things that are vital to people, namely goods, services and capital.

 In Defense of Free Migration
Not long after the Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776, Thomas Jefferson wrote of "the natural right which 0 men have of relinquishing the country in which birth or other accident may have thrown them, and seeking subsistence and happiness wheresoever they may be able, and hope to find them.
And even when their own lot was not one of perfect tranquility and prosperity, they were confident that their children's lives would be — compared to everything they had left behind in the old country.
But the evils of government policies should not be a rationale or excuse for denying human beings the right to migrate and live where they wish.

 NCPA Debate Central -- Free Markets Mean Free Movement
They all acknowledged that the free movement of labor was an indispensable counterpart to the unrestricted mobility of capital.
Too often, those conservative free marketeers most firm in their opposition to intervention in the market by governments and labor unions have been in favor of the clumsy and inhumane control of migration.
If the defense of capitalism is to have the humane and liberating aspect it had in the heyday of the free market, however, and if conservatism is not to be a merely defensive and reactionary creed, it is high time attempts were made to relax and liberalize the controls on free movement.

 Migration, Free Trade and Regional Integration in North America   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
This publication explores the links between trade liberalisation and migration movements in North America and discusses the issue of whether the free circulation of persons accompany the successive stages of regional economic integration or whether it is an important objective to be achieved only once economic convergence has reached a sufficiently high level.
The authors conclude that restrictions on movement are likely to continue into the future and that the lack of free movement does not constitute an obstacle to regional economic integration.
Within this context, the need for balanced migration policies which take account of concerns about the economic consequences and social welfare of both sending and receiving countries will remain on the agenda for the foreseeable future.
