Sedentary life . National borders . The creation of identity documents for increasingly stricter population control .

This book concisely explains what migration is, its causes and consequences, and the humanistic and legal aspects regarding it in the simplest, most objective ways possible, so that children have all the information they need to understand the world around them.
