Migration to New Worlds charts the emigration experience of millions across 200 years of turbulent history. Bringing together digitized materials from twenty-six archives around the globe, the release of Module II: The Modern Era marks the completion of this vast primary source collection.
Continuing on from Module I: The Century of Immigration, Module II begins with the activities of the New Zealand Company during the 1840s. Sources included trace the growth of colonization companies, activities of immigration and welfare societies, the experience of later generations, and the plight of refugees and displaced persons after the Second World War.
