1 CFE HIGHER GEOGRAPHY: POPULATION MIGRATION
2 A controversial issue! What are your thoughts?
3 WHAT IS MIGRATION? Migration is a movement of people from one place to another Emigrant is a person who leaves a country Immigrants are newcomers to a country The migration balance is the difference between the number of emigrants and immigrants Take notes to understand the key words and types of migration Internal (regional) migration is when people migrate within the same country or region - for example, moving from Glasgow to Aberdeen. International migration is when people migrate from one country to another - for example, moving from Mexico to the USA. Voluntary migration: where people chose to migrate from their homes. For example for economic reasons to find work or change career, or for social reasons such as being with family or friends or gaining a better quality of life Forced Migration: where people have no choice. They migrate to escape political persecution, war or natural disasters.
4 MIGRATION PUSH AND PULL Push Factors: These are the factors that cause people to leave an area Economic Migration usually happens as a result of a combination of push and pull factors. They generally fall into the following categories Social Political Environmental Make a copy of these headings in your notes. Make sure you understand the difference between them. Work with your neighbour to identify examples of PUSH FACTORS in each category
5 CHECK YOUR ANSWERS Economic Social Political Environmental Poorly paid jobs / low wages Lack of job opportunities Recession / risk of job losses High unemployment rates Lack of services like schools and health care Lack of entertainment Loneliness / missing family and friends High crime rates Political instability War Corrupt government Political persecution Harsh climate such as drought Soil erosion causes crop failure Natural disasters Flooding Soil infertility Lack of safety
6 Pull Factors: These are the factors that attract people to a new area Add these examples to your note Economic Prospect of better wages, more career opportunities, wealth generation Environmental Social Fertile soil, less severe climate, ability to grow crops, low risk of natural hazards Being with family and friends, better access to services and entertainment, improved standard of living, feeling safe, lower crime rate Political Stable government, democracy,
7 A SUMMARY
8 MIGRATION PATTERNS The map below shows some examples of world migration patterns. The arrows represent the movement of people Describe and explain some of the migration patterns you identify on the map (6)
9 ARE MORE PEOPLE ON THE MOVE THAN EVER BEFORE?
10 INTERNATIONAL VOLUNTARY MIGRATION Case Study: Poland to UK On the 1 st April 2004 Poland was on of 10 counties admitted to the European Union (EU). By law any resident of an EU nation has the right of free movement amongst all of the other member states. The UK Government predicted an increase in immigration as a result of this, expecting immigrants from Poland and other counties who had gained EU membership at the same time. However, by July people from eastern Europe had applied to work in the UK, 62% of whom were Polish. By the 2011 census, records showed Polish people resident in the UK
11 WHY DID POLES MIGRATE TO THE UK? PUSH FACTORS High unemployment in Poland (average of 18.5% in 2005) High levels of youth unemployment (around 40%) GDP only $ per capita. Low wages In rural areas unemployment rates of 40% 17% of population below poverty line PULL FACTORS Unemployment in the UK low at 5.1% Demands for skilled and semi-skilled labour in the UK GDP in UK $30, 900 per capita prospects of wealth and higher wages. UK one of only three countries who did not restrict the amount of Polish immigrants Better standard of living (housing, education, healthcare).
12 WHO ARE THE IMMIGRANTS? Often with young families Skilled and semi-skilled industrial workers and tradesmen Vast majority employed within factories, as warehouse operatives, cleaning duties or farm workers Typical earnings of 150 per month back in Poland Majority intending to stay for short periods (less than a year) Many are Polish students taking a gap year Earnings in the UK typically 6 per hour
13 IMPACT ON THE UK 2.5 billion contributed to the economy by eastern European migrants Sort the statements into positive and negative impacts for the UK 80% of migrants ages so make national insurance contributions which help UK cope with ageing population Migrants typically hard working, enthusiastic, skilled and flexible Brings new cultural diversity to the UK - food, music, language Demand for housing puts pressure on housing stock. Rents / house prices rise In 2006 an estimated 0.5 to 1.0% of economic growth was attributed to these immigrant workers Tensions and conflict in areas with a large influx of migrants Pressure on child benefit estimated additional 27, 000 applications approved High proportion of wages being returned to Poland Migrants willing to take on low skilled, low wage jobs that the UK can t fill from its own population Increase pressures on education placed by children of immigrants Additional stress on services like the NHS to provide medical treatment Increase birth rates to counteract ageing population
14 IMPACT ON POLAND Injection of foreign cash as wages earned in the UK are sent back to Poland Less pressure on resources such as health care and education due to less young people Brain Drain of skilled workers who left to seek employment in the UK The vast majority of migrants return to Poland with greater wealth, better language skills and possible training acquired in their work. Imbalanced population with elderly making up a larger proportion of the population Families are separated Reduction in revenue from taxes Loss of entrepreneurial spirit as those that left tended to be the biggest risk takers Birth rates decrease due to less young people Loss of manual labour source, for example rural workers There are improved social, cultural and political links to the UK
15 IMPACTS ON THE MIGRANT WORKER Many work hard to get a better quality of life (high wages, good quality housing) Unable to return home due to lack of funds They can be the subject of abuse ethnic tension, conflict Watch the clip. It covers some of the positive and negative impacts of Polish migrants to the UK. Write down some of the positive and negative experiences they tell you about. How does migration affect Polish workers? Some workers are exploited by corrupt employers and landlords can end up in poor quality housing or on the streets Language barriers make it difficult to communicate or get skilled jobs
16 EXAM QUESTIONS: 1) With reference to an example of population migration between 2 named countries which you have studied: a) Explain the migration in terms of push and pull factors (5 marks) b) Discuss the advantages and disadvantages which the migration has brought to either the losing country or the receiving country. (5 marks)
17 CHECK YOUR ANSWERS! a) Answers should refer in detail to push and pull factors and should relate to a named case study (POLAND TO UK) Push Factors could include: High unemployment in Poland (average of 18.5% in 2005) which encouraged people to move away to find jobs (1). In particular high levels of youth unemployment (around 40%) meant a lack of prospects for young workers. (1). The GDP in Poland is only $ per capita, reflecting poverty, and low wages (1). Many traditional jobs are in farming but in rural areas there are unemployment rates of 40% as machinery has taken over the jobs that were traditionally done by labourers (1). 17% of population below poverty line, reflecting a poor standard of living with poor quality of housing, health care and education (1)
18 CONTINUED Pull factors could include: Unemployment in the UK low at 5.1% so Polish workers expect to find Work and plentiful jobs available (1). The UK has a high demand for skilled and semi-skilled labour; positions it can t fill from its own population (1). GDP in UK $30, 900 per capita, so Polish workers relish the prospects of wealth and higher wages (1). The UK is one of only three countries who did not restrict the amount of Polish immigrants, therefore they can migrate without restrictions (1). The UK offers a better standard of living for example good quality housing, education available to children of immigrants, and good quality free healthcare (1).
19 CONTINUED (b) Example in mark scheme is from Greece, Spain, Bulgaria to Germany (but use your Polish to UK case study) Donor country, eg Greece, Spain or Bulgaria: Advantages Pressure on local services such as education, healthcare and housing is reduced. (1 mark) Pressure on jobs is reduced therefore levels of unemployment will fall. (1 mark) The birth rate is lowered so population growth rates will slow. (1 mark) Money sent home by the migrants will boost the local economy. (1 mark) Migrants will learn new skills and may then return to their home country. (1 mark) Disadvantages Active and most educated population left, known as the brain drain, which resulted in a skills shortage in donor countries. (1 mark) Families were divided and the death rates may increase due to the ageing population. (1 mark) Family members remaining in the country of origin may become dependent on remittances being sent home by migrant workers. (1 mark)
20 CONTINUED Recipient country, eg Germany: Advantages The short-term gap in labour is filled. Many migrants are highly skilled, eg engineers and academics. (1 mark) Migrants will take jobs that locals did not want and will work for lower, more competitive wages, thus reducing labour costs. (1 mark) Migrants will enrich the culture of the area that they move to with language, food and music. (1 mark) The increased population will result in an increase in the tax paid to the government, which can be invested in improving local services. (1 mark) Disadvantages Migrant workers may feel discriminated against. Unemployment rises for local people. (1 mark) Ghettos may develop in parts of cities and there may be a shortage of affordable housing. (1 mark) Cost of providing services for migrant population and their families will increase, eg for schooling, healthcare, etc. (1 mark)
21 INTERNATIONAL FORCED MIGRATION LATEST EU in crisis. This year the number of people seeking asylum in the UK has surged - Germany and Hungary had already surpassed their 2014 totals by July of 2015! Germany and Sweden seem to be the most popular destinations as people travel from Greece and the Baklans in the south Syria is the origin of most refugees and then others from Afghanistan, Eritrea and Kosovo. Hungary has built a 110 mile fence along its border with Serbia to slow the flow of asylum seekers 2,643 migrants have died so far this year in the Mediterranean trying to cross into the EU. Mostly due to boats being overcrowded David Cameron has said the UK will take more Syrian Refugees in response to the humanitarian crisis ~ 20,000 over the next 5 years
22
23 INTERNATIONAL FORCED MIGRATION: SYRIA TO LEBANON, IRAQ, JORDAN, TURKEY At the end of April 2013, according to UN data, there were 445,000 Syrian refugees in Lebanon. There are also many thousands of refugees in Iraq, Turkey and Jordan. Government of Lebanon and UN projections estimate that there will be one million Syrian refugees in Lebanon by the end of Lebanon s population is approximately 4.2 million. Syrian refugees make up 10% of the population already and by the end of 2013 this is expected to rise to 20%. There were 4 million refugees from Syria spread across the 4 countries by July KEY WORD: REFUGEE a person who has been forced to leave their country in order to escape war, persecution, or natural disaster.
24 CAUSES OF THIS FORCED MIGRATION Watch the clip for a brief description of the Syria crisis) PUSH FACTORS Syria has been crippled by Civil War since 2011 Many ordinary Syrian people have been caught up in the violence of the war and are scared for their own safety and lives Various rebel groups are fighting against government troops. The Free Syria Army is one of the main military groups Suspicions of chemical weapons being used by the government against the country s people after a chemical attack outside Damascus in 2013 ISIS have invaded parts of Syria (since 2014) from Iraq and now effectively two wars are taking place
25 IMPACTS OF THE FORCED MIGRATION
26 WATCH THE CLIP! 8Q Lack of a future for young people as they cannot take control of their own lives Diseases spread in the high temperatures and overcrowded conditions Forced into refugee camps or poor quality housing Impacts on the refugees Insanitary conditions with limited food, lack of electricity and running water Not enough aid to go around Lack of education for children There are very few opportunities for employment, so many refugees resort to desperate measures to cover their costs. These include prostitution, early marriage, begging and working for exploitative wages.
27 IMPACT ON HOST COUNTRIES Pressure put on housing stock due to influx of people. It is expensive to host all of these extra people either in the local communities or makeshift camps Lost income due to lower wages, more competition for jobs and the deterioration of services due to overdemand. Medical services are stretched to their limit. Overcrowding in communities and camps can cause epidemics of disease. Waste management and sanitation services struggle to cope with the extra demand Residents in the host countries claim they have lost their jobs due to refugees willingness to work for lower wages. This has caused conflict within communities Schools struggle to cope with the increasing number of Syrian children
