Abstract: Migration exists on a broad spectrum as an interdisciplinary phenomenon of international relations with its consequences permeating through many levels. The aim of this historical overview of migration is to identify the common characteristics of individual migratory waves, alongside their main causes. In the analysis of the causes of migration, we shall consider the consequences of push and pull factors. The dominant theoretical framework of this qualitative research is a neoclassical one. At least since the late 19th century, international migration has been perceived as a burning social or political problem and, therefore, migration must be regulated. As a result of the analysis, in most cases the motives for migration are repeated.
