Proximity Chain Migration- immigrants cluster in a specific location because a relative or member of same nationality previously went there Set up “ethnic enclaves”- neighborhoods with a large ethnic population from the same area

Immigration Policies- US Quota Laws- limits on the maximum # of immigrants allowed; started in the 1920’s Currently: 620,000 per year; no more than 7% from one country Preference in the US- reunification of families and spouses; skilled workers and exceptionally talented Refugees do not fall under the quota Temporary Migration for work: Guest Workers: citizens of other countries who are allowed in to work; usually they take low-status and low- skilled jobs but are protected by minimum-wage laws and others; the pay is low, but better than they would get at home- this helps the home country because it lowers their unemployment number and because these workers often send money home to their families

Forced Migration What is Forced Migration? When people are forced to migrate because of cultural, political, or environmental reasons. Most Common Types: Conflict-Induced Displacement occurs when people are forced to flee their homes as a result of armed conflict including civil war, generalized violence, and persecution on the grounds of nationality, race, religion, political opinion or social group. Development-Induced Displacement occurs when people are compelled to move as a result of policies and projects implemented to advance ‘development’ efforts. Examples of this include large-scale infrastructure projects such as dams, roads, ports, airports; urban clearance initiatives; mining and deforestation; and the introduction of conservation parks/reserves and biosphere projects. Disaster-Induced Displacement occurs when people are displaced as a result of natural disasters (floods, volcanoes, landslides, earthquakes), environmental change (deforestation, desertification, land degradation, global warming) and human-made disasters (industrial accidents, radioactivity).

Refugee- people who have been forced to migrate from their home and cannot return for fear of persecution because of race, religion, nationality, membership in a social group, or political opinion million refugees worldwide- most located in Africa

Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) –people who have been forced to flee their homes as a result of or in order to avoid the effects of armed conflict, situations of generalized violence, violations of human rights or natural or human-made disasters, and who have NOT crossed into another country
