1. MIGRATION  WHAT IS IT?  GEOGRAPHIC  MOVEMENT  CHANGES PEOPLE, PLACES  DIFFUSION  SPATIAL INTERACTIONS  CONNECTION TO ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS  MOBILITY, FROM LOCAL TO GLOBAL, FROM DAILY TO ONCE IN A LIFETIME  WE ALL LEAVE HOME!

2.  Human migration is physical movement by humans from one area to another, sometimes over long distances or in large groups. The movement of populations in modern times has continued under the form of both voluntary migration within one's region, country, or beyond, and involuntary migration (which includes the slave trade, and ethnic cleansing). involuntary migration slave tradeethnic cleansing involuntary migration slave tradeethnic cleansing

3. TYPES OF MOVEMENT  CYCLIC, SHORTER PERIODS AWAY FROM HOME; *ACTIVITY SPACES *ACTIVITY SPACES *COMMUTING *COMMUTING *SEASONAL *SEASONAL *NOMADISM *NOMADISM  PERIODIC, LONGER PERIODS *MIGRANT LABOR *MIGRANT LABOR *TRANSHUMANCE-PASTORAL FARMING *TRANSHUMANCE-PASTORAL FARMING *COLLEGE *COLLEGE *MILITARY SERVICE *MILITARY SERVICE  MIGRATION, PERMANENCE  *RELOCATION ACROSS DISTANCE  *INTERNATIONAL (TRANSNATIONAL, ACROSS BORDERS) *EMIGRANT (ONE WHO MIGRATES OUT) TO IMMIGRANT (ONE *EMIGRANT (ONE WHO MIGRATES OUT) TO IMMIGRANT (ONE MIGRATES IN) MIGRATES IN) *EMIGRATION SUBTRACTS FROM TOTAL POP. WHILE IMMIGRATION *EMIGRATION SUBTRACTS FROM TOTAL POP. WHILE IMMIGRATION ADDS TO TOTAL POP. ADDS TO TOTAL POP. *INTERNAL MIGRATION *INTERNAL MIGRATION

4. THINKING ACTIVITY  CHOOSE A TYPE OF CYCLIC OR PERIODIC MOVEMENT. THEN THINK OF A SPECIFIC EXAMPLE OF THE KIND OF MOVEMENT. DETERMINE HOW THIS MOVEMENT CHANGES BOTH THE HOME AND THE DESTINATION. HOW DO THESE PLACES CHANGE AS A RESULT OF THIS CYCLIC OR PERIOD MOVEMENT?

5. WHY DO PEOPLE MIGRATE?  FORCED MIGRATION - IMPOSTION OF POWER FOR MOVEMENT *EX., ATLANTIC SLAVE TRADE *EX., ATLANTIC SLAVE TRADE BRITISH CONVICTS TO AUSTRALIA, USA AND NATIVE AMERICAN REMOVALS, USSR PURGES  VOLUNTARY MIGRATION – MOVEMENT AFTER OPTIONS/CHOICES *EX., EUROPEAN MIGRATION *EX., EUROPEAN MIGRATION TO USA, 19 TH AND 20 TH CEN., TO USA, 19 TH AND 20 TH CEN., EXCEPT IRISH EXCEPT IRISH

6.  THE DECISION TO MIGRATE HAPPENS WITHIN A HOUSEHOLD, PLACE, NATION, REGION, AND WORLD, EACH WITH ITS DYNAMICS.

7. WHY? REASONS  RAVENSTEIN, UK DEMOGRAPHER AND LAWS OF MIGRATION  1.EVERY MIGRATION FLOW GENERATES A RETURN OR COUNTER-MIGRATION  2.MAJORITY OF MIGRANTS MOVE A SHORT DISTANCE.  3.MIGRANTS WHO MOVE LONG DISTANCES TEND TO MOVE TO URBAN AREAS.  4.URBAN RESIDENTS ARE LESS MIGRATORY THAN RURAL RESIDENTS.  5.FAMILIES ARE LESS LIKELY TO MAKE INTERNATIONAL MOVES THAN YOUNG ADULTS.

8. PUSH AND PULL FACTORS  RAVENSTEIN’S GRAVITY MODEL, RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PLACES BASED ON POP. SIZE AND DISTANCE BETWEEN THEM.  THE NUMBER OF MIGRANTS TO A PLACE DECLINES AS DISTANCE OF TRAVEL INCREASES.  PUSH-CONDITIONS WHICH FORCE MIGRANT TO LEAVE  PULL-CONDITIONS WHICH ATTRACT MIGRANT TO GO ELSEWHERE  RELATED TO PULL IS DISTANCE DECAY, WHICH IS RELATED TO DISTANCE, THE GREATER THE DISTANCE, THE LESS INTERACTION.  ANOTHER FACTOR, INTERVENING OPPORTUNITY, STATES NEARER OPPORTUNITY DIMINISHES FARTHER AWAY SITES.  STEP MIGRATION, STAGES OF MIGRATION  CHAIN MIGRATION, PREPARATION FOR FAMILY MIGRATION RESULTING IN POSSIBLE IMMIGRATION WAVES  EX., GREAT MIGRATION, USA, EARLY 1900S
