| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Migration |
 | | Migration today differs in many important particulars from that of earlier times. |  | | Along with these changed conditions came the radical philosophy of the eighteenth century, the teaching of natural rights and an insistence upon the individual's privilege to go to, and remain in, that part of the world which best suited his fancy. |  | | Migrations have taken place under a variety of conditions. |
