  1. Chapter 3…Migration • Movement of people creates many changes. Movement changes both the places they move to and the places they came from. Movement speeds diffusion of ideas and innovations; it intensifies spatial interaction and transforms regions; and it is also often closely linked to environmental conditions. • Movement takes many forms: • 1. local-local 2. local-global 3. daily 4. once in a lifetime • The more mobility a person has the easier it is for them to move. More moving means that the person broadens their perspectives. This enhances the likelihood of them leaving home. Most people who move have traveled before.

  3. There are three types of movement, all are based on the time away from their home; Cyclic,periodic and migration. • Cyclic movement: These are daily or very short moves from our home to some place and back. The area of these short moves is known as Activity spaces. You moving from home to school and back home (perhaps to the mall too) are your activity spaces. • Another type of cyclic movement is seasonal. People who come to live in Florida in the winter and then go back to some place up north for the summer, are good examples. This is a luxury as it doesn’t have to be done. • Nomadism is seasonal but it has to be done to survive. • Periodic movement: Like cyclic movement this ends up with the person coming home, but there is a longer period away than with cyclic movement. Migrant workers are your best example. They leave home to work in another place and stay, often sending money back to their home, until they return home at a later date. They are not immigrants as immigrants come to stay.

  4. Activity space: The park Activity spaces are the most common places you go. You end up returning home. The Mall Your BFF’s house Your house McDonald’s Your school

  5. 1. Transhumance is a system of pastoral farming where the • ranchers move livestock according to seasonal food supplies. • 2. Going off to college for months at a time is another example of periodic movement, so is Military service. • Migration: This is permanent movement across large distances by an individual, household, or larger group, to a new place outside the community of origin. • 1. International (or external) migration is movement across • country borders. (Emigration= exit a country, Immigration • = enter a country) • 2. Internal migration is migration within a country’s • border. This would be movement of farmers to the cities or • retirees from the city to small towns in retirement areas.

  6. Why migrate? • Forced migrationwould be when a group is forced out of their area by a more powerful group. US forced Native Americans off of their land in the 1700-1800’s. Involuntary migration does not fit the normal theories of migration. Examples include the Atlantic Slave Trade from 1700-1810, British convicts forced to move to Australia in the late 1700’s to early 1800’s, and Jews forced out of NAZI Germany in the 1930’s. • Voluntary migrationoccurs when a migrant weighs the options and chooses to move. This can be analyzed, studied and understood with modern theories. • There is a problem in studying migration, as people often move for both voluntary and involuntary reasons. Likewise, it is difficult to get a clear picture of gender and migration. In many regions, men usually migrate more than women but that is not always true.

  7. Why do people migrate? • Push Factors • Pull Factors • Emigration and immigration • Change in residence. • relative to origin and destination. Major International Migration Patterns, Early 1990s

  8. World Migration Routes Since 1700 European African (slaves) Indian Chinese Japanese Majority of population descended from immigrants

  9. U.S. Migration Ellis Island National Monument Prior to 1840, 90% of U.S.immigration was from Britain Three trends: before 1840-Britain 1840-1920- All of Europe 1980-now-Latin America Destinations of U.S. Immigrants - ethnic neighborhoods often result of chain migration • Mexicans: California, Texas, Illinois, New York • Caribbean: Florida or New York • Chinese and Indians: New York & California • Other Asians: California • Armenians: ????

  10. U.S. Immigration Policies: • 1882, Bars Asian immigration for ten years (extended) • 1921, Quota Act - country by country quotas • 1924 National Origins Act - country by country quotas • 1965, Immigration Act - quotas for countries replaced, in 1968, with hemisphere quotas of 170, 000 for East and 120,000 for West • 1978, Immigration Act - global quota of 290, 000 • 1980, Refugee Act - quotas do not apply to those seeking political asylum • 1986, Immigration Reform and Control Act admitted large numbers of former illegal's. • 1990, Immigration Act raised global quotas to roughly 675,000 • 1995, visas issued Preferentially: • 480,000 - to relatives of people already here, • 140,000 - to those with special skills and education • 55,000 - to diversity candidates (i.e., mostly not from Latin Amer. or Asia) Current Total: 675,000

  11. The history of immigration into the US. Note how the origin of the immigrants has changed over the years. The big dip in the 1930’s was caused by our shutting the borders due to the Great Depression.

  12. US Population by Race and Ethnicity, 1990-2050

  13. Top 10 Countries of Origin for US Legal Immigrants, 1998

  14. Illegal Aliens in the United States by Country of Origin, 1996 (in 1,000s) About 5.0 million undocumented immigrants were residing in the United States in October 1996, with a range of about 4.6 to 5.4 million (about 1.9% of the total US population). The population was estimated to be growing by about 275,000 each year. 41 percent, of the total undocumented population in 1996 are nonimmigrant overstays. That is, they entered legally on a temporary basis and failed to depart.

  16. up with his "laws" of migration in the 1880s based on studies carried out in the UK. • So…..Migration is the movement of people. • It is classified by such indices as: • Distance traveled…most is short. • Reason for migration…money is #1 reason • Period of time of travel…daily, periodic, permanent • Volume of migrants…streams of migration • Consequences of migration include • Increased understanding between people of different cultures • Increased animosity between people of different cultures • Changes in numbers of people at the destination and origin • Creation of ghettoes in urban areas • Inter-marriages • Ravenstein's Laws of Migration: • Ravenstein came up with his "laws" of migration in the 1880s based on studies carried out in the UK.

  17. Ravenstein’s laws are as follows: • The greatest body of migrants travel short distances. • This produces currents directed towards great commercial centers. • Each current has a compensating counter-current in the opposite direction. • Both currents display similar characteristics • Long distance movements are directed towards great commercial centers. • People in urban areas migrate less than people in rural areas. • Males migrate more over long distances and females migrate more over short distances. • Additions to These Laws: • Most migrants are between 20-34 years of age. • People mainly move for economic reasons. • Urban housing development is inadequate for the influx of migrants so ghettoes/shanties are formed.

  18. Other important laws regarding migration: • Zipf's Inverse Distance Law • The volume of migrants decreases with distance from the origin. • Stouffer's Law of Intervening Distances • The number of migrants moving from one town (i) to another (j) is directly related to the opportunities available at j but inversely proportional to the number of intervening opportunities between i and j. • Push-Pull Theory • Any migration is as a result of push forces at the origin and pull forces at the destination. Examples of push forces are famine, war and poverty. Examples of pull forces are availability of food, peace and wealth. • Gravity Model • This theory states that larger towns are more attractive to immigrants than smaller towns.

  19. The Gravity Model shows which is a more likely move. The gravity model, as social scientists refer to the modified law of gravitation, takes into account the population size of two places and their distance. Since larger places attract people, ideas, and commodities more than smaller places and places closer together have a greater attraction, the gravity model incorporates these two features. The relative strength of a bond between two places is determined by multiplying the population of city A by the population of city B and then dividing the product by the distance between the two cities squared. This gives you an idea of which place a migrant is more likely to move to. It is only a math equation and does not include such things as people in a place that the migrant may know or other personal reasons why the migrant would chose a particular place to move to. Population1 x population2 distance 2

  20. Here is an example of the Gravity Model’s formula in use: Which is more likely, someone moving from LA to NY city or from Tucson AZ. to El Paso Texas? Fill in the populations and mileage into the formula. For LA-NY we first multiply their 1998 populations (20,124,377 and 15,781,273, respectively) to get 317,588,287,391,921 and then we divide that number by the distance (2462 miles) squared (6,061,444). The result is 52,394,823. We can shorten our math by reducing the numbers to the millions place - 20.12 times 15.78 equals 317.5 and then divide by 6 with a result of 52.39. Now, do the same for El Paso and Tucson. We multiply their populations (703,127 and 790,755) to get 556,001,190,885 and then we divide that number by the distance (263 miles) squared (69,169) and the result is 8,038,300. (Reduced like above to 8.03) Therefore, the bond between New York and Los Angeles is greater than that of El Paso and Tucson. Mathematically, people are more likely to move from LA to NY than Tucson to El Paso.

  21. Consequences of Migration: • These can be subdivided into 3 categories: • Demographic Consequences: • Changes in the numbers and distribution of people within a region. • Some areas become overpopulated while others become under populated. • 2. Social Consequences: • Migration brings different people together sometimes leading to conflicts. • Migration however also creates understanding between different groups of people. • Intermarriages happen which bring about a new group of people. • Rural-Urban migration creates ghettoes and slums in cities. • 3.Economic Consequences: • This depends on the "quality" of the migrants and the economic needs of the origin and destination. Quality refers to skills, age, educational attainment, health etc. • In overpopulated areas, emigration is beneficial because it reduces the pressure on the land. • In under populated areas, emigration may slow down development.

  24. Migration Terms: • Guest Workers: People who are invited by more developed countries to fill the jobs open due to a shortage of workers. This is happening most in Northern Europe today, with workers coming from Southern Europe or from other continents. • Distance decay: Prospective migrants are likely to have more information on near places than far places, therefore people are more likely to move short distances than long. • Step migration: Many migrants actually move in smaller steps instead of one big long distance move. The migrant moves to another small town first followed by a move to a bigger town and then to a big city. Most emigration from a country actually started with a move by the migrant to a big city (the capitol) in their country before they decided to migrate out. Most were hoping to get a good job in their own country before they decided to emigrate out.

  25. Guest Workers

  26. Migration Terms: • Chain Migration:has multiple meanings. It refers to the social process by which immigrants from a particular town follow others from that town to a particular city or neighborhood, whether in an immigrant receiving country or in a new, usually urban, location in the home country. The term also refers to the process of foreign nationals immigrating to a new country under laws permitting their reunification with family members already living in the destination country. • Quotas: In reference to migration, a maximum limit on the number of people who can immigrate to a country. • Refugee: People who are forced from their home and can not return for fear of persecution for who they are. • Asylee:Same as refugee except the asylee is already out of the country when they become fearful for their lives should they return home. Make sure to note the difference between an asylee and a refugee.

  27. Migration Terms: • Brain Drain: Large-scale emigration of talented people. • Illegal Immigration: Illegally migrating to a place without specific permission by that country. • Intervening Obstacle: An environmental or cultural feature that hinders migration. The migrant planned to go one place but ended up in another.

  28. International Migration Trends: • Movement from Southern hemisphere to Northern hemisphere (Examples…to the US from Latin America.) • Movement from poor regions to rich areas (Examples?) • Movement from tension areas (war, political instability) to peaceful areas (Examples?) • Movement from rural areas to urban centers

  29. Zelinsky’s Migration Transition • Geographer W. Zelinsky has discovered that there is a migration transition that parallels the Demographic Transition. • Countries in stage 2 of the DTM will have international emigration, as people leave the country looking for jobs in other lands. They will also have interregional migration of people in their country moving to the cities in their country looking for jobs. • Countries in stage 3-4-5 of the DTM will have more internal migration of people looking for better jobs and will also have immigration of people coming from stage 2 countries.

  30. Zelinsky’s Migration Transition Model Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3 Stage 4 Stage 5 There presently is no country in this stage Poor over-populated countries have emigration out to richer countries. International migration Improving or MDC’ countries have more internal migration within their own country.

  31. US National Migration Trends: • Movement from East to West • traditional settlement patterns of European immigration • Movement from North to South • from the rust belt to the sun belt • resulting from changes in technology • Large growth of Mega States such as California, Texas and Florida

  32. Westward Migration Trend • In 1800 the geographical center of the US population was between Baltimore and Washington • In 1980 it was 100 miles south-west of St. Louis • By 1990 it had moved further southwest about 100 miles to Crawford County MO

  33. Westward Movement of the U.S. Population 2010 the center of the US population is in Crawford county Missouri. *2010

  34. Internal Migration Mobility • Over a 5 year period, one half of the population changes houses • The typical American will have fourteen addresses over his/her lifetime • Interregional Migration: Permanent movement within a particular country, but from one region to another. • Intraregional Migration: Permanent movement within one region of a country.

  35. The largest amount of migration in the US is going south and west. There is counter migration going east and north, but the largest streams go south and west. Interregional Migration - Movement From One Region to Another

  36. You might think that the US is on the right but it is the Mexican population which crowds close to the US border for job opportunities. The Maquiladora industries of Mexico want to be as close to the US as possible. The Great Divide – Mexico is on the right

  37. The US/Mexico wall near Tijuana

  38. What specific factors help migrants choose a destination? • Economic conditions: Poverty has been the single most important cause of migration. • Political circumstances: People fleeing or exiled from a bad government is another big creator of migration. Some people are escaping and some people have been forced out. Jews fleeing NAZI Germany in the 1930’s or 125,000 Cubans forced out of Cuban in 1980 are just a few of the many examples. • Armed conflict or Civil War: War from outside or inside the country forces many people to move. • Environmental conditions: A natural disaster like a drought or earthquake causes people affected by the problem to move. • Culture and Traditions: If a power from another culture group takes over a country, people from another culture often feel threatened and they may move to areas where they feel their culture group is safer.

  39. When the nation of Israel was created in 1948, half of the land known as Palestine was given to the Jews. Arabs who lived in the Jewish half didn’t feel safe and many migrated to the Arab half of Palestine. • Technological Advances: Today’s world is far easier to travel in than the world of 200 or even 60 years ago. More people are willing to take the big step of migration than before. Kinship links(family members who have already moved to that area) attract people. This often creates chainmigration. Chain migration comes from migrants arriving in an area and contacting people back home, telling them how good the new place is. They often attract more family members and friends to now migrate to the new area. This can often create immigrationwaves in which large groups of immigrants arrive in a short time. • Where do people migrate?Migration is not as simple as people just move from one place to another for a better job. It is much more complicated than that, as people move for lots of reasons and to different places at different times.

  40. Remittances: Remittances are payments sent from workers in one country back to their families in the country they came from. Much of this is done from businesses like AMSCOT and other check cashing businesses which will send money from one place to another by electronic mail. Mexicans living in the United States sent a record $23.1 billion back home in 2006, putting remittances third after oil and Maquiladora exports as a foreign-exchange generator for Mexico (Chart 1). Over the last decade or so, inflation-adjusted remittances have grown at an average annual rate of 15.6 percent. Since 2000, the rate has risen to 20.4 percent.(remittances=$25.8 billion in 2009) Sale of oil Maquiladora jobs Remittances Tourism

  41. North America on the move. The chart shows the 2012 data from the Atlas Van Lines moving company, showing the moves made in Canada and the US. Blue…inbound migration with over 55% of the moves going into the state Gold…outbound migration with over 55% of the moves leaving the state Red…balanced migration with inbound and outbound moves being about equal. Note…the bottom number is inbound.

  42. Italy: Scores killed as African migrants' boat capsizes CBS News, Updated at 7:58 a.m. 10/04/ 2013 ET ROME; A ship carrying African migrants toward Italy caught fire and capsized off the Sicilian island of Lampedusa Thursday, spilling hundreds of passengers into the sea, officials said. Ninety-four bodies were recovered and more than 200 people were unaccounted for. PietroBartolo, the top health official on Lampedusa, said Thursday he expected the toll to rise as search operations continue. He spoke to Sky TG24. It was one of the deadliest accidents in recent times during the notoriously perilous crossing from Africa for migrants seeking a new life in the European Union. In an indication of the scale of the unfolding tragedy, Interior Minister Angelino Alfano canceled his appointments Thursday and headed to Lampedusa to oversee the rescue operations first-hand. Pope Francis, who visited Lampedusa in July, quickly sent his condolences. "It's an immense tragedy," said Lampedusa Mayor GiusiNicolini, adding that the dead included at least one child of about 3 and a pregnant woman. The migrants were from Eritrea, Ghana and Somalia, the coast guard said. The boat is believed to have been carrying as many as 500 people. Coast guard ships and helicopters from across the region, as well as local fishing boats were on the scene trying to find survivors, said coast guard spokesman Marco Di Milla. Mayor Nicolini said the ship had caught fire after those on board set off flares so it would be seen by passing ships. The ship apparently then capsized, spilling the passengers into the sea near Conigli island. It was one of the deadliest migrant shipwrecks in recent times and the second one this week off Italy: On Monday, 13 men drowned while trying to reach southern Sicily when their ship ran aground just a few yards from shore. Lampedusa is closer to Africa than the Italian mainland and is the frequent destination for smugglers' boats. Hundreds of migrants reach the shores every day, particularly during summer months when seas are usually calmer. They are processed in centers, screened for asylum and often sent back home. Those who aren't usually melt into the general public and make their way to northern Europe, where immigrant communities are much bigger and better organized. In Italy, migrants can only work legally if they have a work permit and contract before they arrive. According to the U.N. refugee agency, 8,400 migrants landed in Italy and Malta in the first six months of the year, almost double the 4,500 who arrived during the first half of 2012. It's still a far cry from the tens of thousands who flooded to Italy during the Arab Spring exodus of 2011.
