Someone who migrates (moves) to find work

The movement of person within the same country

A barrier to a migrant like a physical feature or political border e.g. the med sea for North Africans heading to EuropeAn alternative migration destination that exists between the migrants place of origin and intended destination

• No matter what country it’s the same

Globalisation

= the process by which people cultures, money, goods and information can be transferred between countries with few or no barriers. (HIGHLIGHT IT!)

Brainstorm these possible factors

Factors accelerating

globalisation are:

Cost

Availability

development

Diamond Ranking• Colonialism• Global Brands• IMF/World Bank• Increased trade• Information exchange-

Internet• NGOs e.g. Oxfam• Stock exchange• TNCs e.g. Nike• Transport

What was the most / least

important factor to accelerate

globalisation?

Tasks

1) Set this out in your notes

2) Annotate your diamond to explain why you have placed each factor in its place

3) Be ready to reason your thoughts to the group

COLONIALISM GLOBAL BRANDS STOCK EXCHANGE

IMF/ WORLD BANK- INTERNATIONAL MONEY

STORAGE/ SUPPLY

INCREASED INFO EXCHANGE/ INTERNET

NGO’S (CHARITIES) GOING INTO OTHER COUNTRIES

INCREASED TRADE TNC’S (NIKE) TRANSPORT



STORAGE/ SUPPLY






STORAGE/ SUPPLY




TransNational Companies All these companies operate in many

countries, usually employing workers in developing countries and HQs in developed.

Working in a hierarchy is more profitable than lots of individual transactions between companies.

Examples: Airbus, Disney, MTV, Cadbury’s, CocaCola

Communications Transport -

o Moving people and goods around means more opportunities for commerce. People can have accurate price information, so shop around and get the best deal. Usually they won’t have to travel with the goods.

o Examples - railways / flights (BA, Cathay) / internet cables / low-cost regional flights (e.g. Kingfisher, DragonAir)

New markets Increased trade leads to similar prices

and growth of economieso Western companies sell to Asia (e.g.

Boeing / Airbus / Microsoft)o Asian companies sell to West, e.g.

Bollywood / Samsung Companies trade on stock exchanges

(increases / decreases the value of a company)

Key ones used to be New York (Nasdaq, NYSE). London (FTSE), Tokyo

Now this includes: Shanghai / Hong Kong / Bombay

International Agencies After World War, America helped Europe

recover its domestic economies, to strengthen them against Communist Eastern Europe.

Currencies were matched to the US, a system which eventually collapsed. Now we have floating currency exchange rates.

All the money floating around the world is regulated by

WTO - governs trade, sets and enforces rules / punishes offenders, e.g. arguments over bananas etc.

IMF - helps establish international money cooperation / transactions / currency and exchange, in order to encourage high employment and temporary financial assistance to countries in debt.

World Bank - there to promote economic growth in developing countries / reduce poverty

Information Exchange ~ Mobile phones / Internet use - refer to ‘Global Shift’, Facebook etc. It can force political change (e.g. mobile phones and Spanish elections following 2004 Madrid bombings) create political debate (e.g. E-Activity - Avaaz/YouTube)

How has each affected globalisation?

• The world’s rich tend to employ the world’s poor• Multinational companies are more powerful than national government• New e- and I-services are available, e.g. Facebook / I-Tunes• Capitalism has spread into former communist countries• Free markets have spread• National industries must compete with Trans-National corporations• Some firms have been unionised to protect workers• Most investment in many countries is FDI - i.e. foreign TNCs• Fair Trade has increased it competition against global food corporations• 1m people a year left Europe after 1900• International capital flows recovered to pre-war in 1990s• Governments are fussier abut immigration• Domestic Football teams can be made up of foreign talent• Migrant workers can have more than 1 vote in the EU

Is each POSITIVE or NEGATIVE?

What are the impacts of globalisation on population?

How are these factors

linked to globalisation

?

What is happening to the world’s population?

Factors affecting the population of a place

Birth Rates – the number of births per thousand people, per year in a region.

Death Rates – the number of deaths per thousand people, per year in a region.

Migration – the movement of people from one region to another.

Difference between birth and death rates

Globalisation can have an impact on natural increase –

A growing economy is often linked to a decrease in death rates as medical care, nutrition, education and sanitation improve.

There is also often a decrease in birth rates as people become more aware of family planning and the status of women starts to rise, with more women wanting to go out to work.

• either by natural change or migration

Population growth/ change

If births exceed deaths population increases- if deaths exceed births there is a

When more people emigrate than immigrate

Effect of globalisation on net migration

Migration changes can lead to either a fall or rise in population.

• A net Migration gain occurs when more people immigrate than emigrate.• A net Migration loss occurs when more people emigrate than immigrate.

The movement of people has led to a globalisation of population with diverse populations made up of many different beliefs, cultures and mixed societies.

Migration is largely dependent on a combination of push and pull factors. However it is also largely dependent on the barriers facing a migrant known as ‘intervening obstacles.’ Examples include:• Social obstacles e.g. family ties back home.• Economic obstacles e.g. The cost of setting up a new home.• Lack of information about destination e.g. Where to stay upon arrival.•Intervening opportunities e.g. Get distracted along the way (E.G. Poles migrating to Ireland pass through London on route and instead settle there.)

Main effects of globalisation on population are:

1) Rural to urban migration in developing nations like China2) Outsourcing of jobs (AND SKILLED MIGRANTS) from

countries like UK to counties like India3) Globalisation of terror- tighter controls on US, UK borders

(reduction in immigrants)4) Increasing foreign investments- more workers worldwide5) Increased awareness and knowledge of wealthier

countries reaching more rural poor (as they receive technology)

Factors affecting migration• Push and Pull factors- The factors which cause people

to move can be divided into two groups.• Push factors encourage people to leave their home

area.• Pull factors attract people into an area.

The migration world according to LEE

• Every place has attributes perceived by different people in different ways

• Intervening obstacles need to be overcome for migration to occur

• E.g. social obstacles- your family remain, you cannot read or wire

• Economic obstacles- cannot afford to set up new home

• Lack of info about destination• Intervening opps and places- people may migrate in

stages e.g. settle in a place en route but stay because they like it or cannot afford to move on again

Fluctuates- moves between

How does Migration link to Globalisation?

•

Population distribution• All continents are experiencing population growth• Africa and Asia at fast rate• North America and Europe at slow rate
