1. APHG outline for Unit II: Population and Migration 1) Spatial analysis of population 2) Population distribution and composition 3) Population growth and decline over time and space 4) Population movement

2. 1) Spatial analysis of population If you take all the world’s peoples and put them in one village of 100 residents, you would have: - 57 Asians - 21 Europeans - 14 Latin Americans - 8 Africans - 70 non-whites - 70 non-Christians - 50% of all wealth in the hands of 6 people (all from US) - 70 are illiterate - 50 have malnutrition - 1 has a college educ.

3. Key Concepts: Population distribution and composition Population density Population pyramid Rural/urban differences Relationships, interconnections, processes?

4. 3) Population growth and decline through space and time Historical increases in population: why? where? when? The demographic transition Fertility and mortality rates; rate of natural increase

10. 4) Population movement Key concepts: Migrant Immigration Emigration Internal displacement Push and pull factors Illegal migration Voluntary and forced migration Refugee Diaspora

13. Immigrants, refugees, internal migrants Voluntary and involuntary migrants Push-pull factors for each group may vary The geography of migration in the Pacific Northwest: A Population case study

15. A focus on the refugee experience… 1) Perception of threat 2) Decision to leave and act of flight 3) Reception camp life 4) Onward migration to 3 rd country 5) Initial resettlement 6) Later stages of resettlement Refugees here in Oregon…

16. Holding on and letting go - Diaspora also refers to people who may never see their homeland again According to writer Salmon Rushdie (Imaginary Homelands, 1991): …having been borne across the world, they are ‘translated’ men and women

27. A few summary comments on diasporas, migrations, place 1) Cultures that tend to cluster spatially usually generate very specific migration patterns. 2) Cultural and political conflicts are likely to promote net out-migration. 3) Individualist political values promote migrations more than collective values.

28. Student outcomes after learning the content and skills in Unit II 1) Discuss the factors that cause people to migrate. How do push-pull factors affect migration? 2) How does the spatial distribution of population differ in North America and Europe as compared to East and South Asia?
