14
Q
How do flows of people create social stabillity in host countries
+2 examples
A
- fill in gaps in the market
2. When the UK lost a lareg portion of its migrant work force due to Brexit, there was a 59,000 person HGV driver shortage, and subsequentelly a fuel shortage in 2019 and nation wide panic
1. e.g can be sigificnat in AC due to an incresed aging population
1. for example 30% of japans population is over 65 and its estimated to maintain its ecconomy it will need x4 the numbre of migrant workers it has today by 2040
15
Q
How do flows of people create growth and development in a host countries
+example
A
- working migrants have taxable income to the host country
1. for example EU migranst were worth £4.7 billion in tax to the UK gov before Brexit
16
Q
How do flows of money create stabillity, growth and development in source countries
2 points each with an example
A
- remittances = economic stabillity for rellatives at home
1. e.g nepals value of migrant remitances as a % of its GDP is 28.8% and its GP has risen near to 100% since 2000 - remittances can also trigger a possitive multiplyereffect that compounds the afeects of stabillity groth and development, by creating new jobs for new disposble icome and so forth.
1. for example in Poland its estimated that over 20% of all public spening comes dirretly from remitanecs
17
Q
How do flows of money create stabillity, growth and development in a host countries
( no example)
A
- migranst spending in their new countries will contrabute to a possitve multiplyer effect there
18
Q
How do flows of ideas create growth, stabillity and development in source countries
(2 points) (1 has 2 examples) ( the other 1 example)
A
- returening migranst bring back progressive ideas
1. forexmple, femanist ideals have spred to many North African countries doubling the numbre of people going to univeristy and more importantly in the work force, fostering economic growth
2. such ideas can also help build stabillity and social development as they allow for normas such as child marage and female genital mutilation to be left behind, once again somethign that is slowly taking place in North Africa. - migrants may gain new skills abroard that will benifit their contries growth and development when they returen home
1. for example, china, a rappidly growing EDC had 700,000 international studenst in 2019 580,000 returened to china after there studies
19
Q
How do flows of ideas create growth in a migranst host countries
+example

31
List how Global migration increasingly complex in recent years (they are all interelated factors) (6)
* Development of disinctive corridors of bilateral Flows
* ecconomic Glabalisation ( leading to new souce countries) and South- south flows
* increase in youngand female migrants
* increase in conflict
* changes in mational emigration/i igration policy
* ballence in S-N and S-S flows
32
explain how changes in emigration/igration policy has made global migration more complex
| 2 with example for each
* This effects the "social profile" or type of migrants ( skill level, age, gender etc) of migranst.
1. For example, countries such as Canada have stringent 1200 points based systems thats ranks migranst and determines who is let in. In 2015 this sytem was updated to allow for possive discrimination for highly skilled worker whom Canada had a shortage for in the Labour market. Thsi included, IT specialsit, Healthcare workers and engeineers as well as young people.
* effective in increseing the numbre of migranst abroard
2. Pakistan's emigration policy aims to encurrage and protect pankistani migrnats abroard. It has been sucessful with mgrant remmitances to pakistan being worth 11.5 billion, the fith biggets in the world.
3. However, 96% of workers work for the Gulf corparations so this might be more of a factor of an increse of south-south flows due to structual economic change and globalisation - around 7 million
4. inclusion of homosexuallity to be areason for assilem seeking recently in the UK as ruled by the supream court, so that now over 3% of assilem seekers in the UK are " refugrees of homosexuality"
33
How much are migrnat remittaces to pakistan worth
11.5 billion, the 5th biggets in the world
34
explain how increase in conflic has made global migration more complex
| 2 with an example each
* Refugrees and assilem seekers result in an increse in the numbre on global migranst
1. the Syrian cival war, (that began in 2011 but esculated 2013), menat that the total numbre of refugrees in the world incresed from 15.7 million to 19.5 million from 2012 to 2014
* it also changes the chages the pattern of migrant flows of people
1. South- south flows have incresed with 87% of refugees living in the Global south and turkey being the biggets resipant (mostly as it borders syria)
35
Due to the Syrian cival war, by how much did teh total numbre of refugrees increse by in the world from 2012-2014
15.7 million to 19.5 million
36
what country is the biggest recipiant of refugrees? and what % of refugrees does the global south hold
* Turkey
* 87% of all golbal refugees live in the south
37
explain how development of distinctive corridors of bilateral flows has made global migration more complex
| 2 points 1 exaple used for both
* speed, frequency ease and quanity of migrants
* dirrections of migrant flows increse in (S-S flows and even N-S flows)
1. Brazil portuagal 140,000 portugese migrants live on brazil and visa versa.
38
what does Bilateral mean ?
* Bi = meaning 2
* lateral= dirrection
39
How many Brazilian migrants live in portulal and protugeese migrants in brazil
140,000 both ways
40
what points should you use if answering a question on why/ what has mad eglobal migration more complex in recent years
1. Globalisation/ increse in south south flows
3. INCREASED CONFLICT
- mention Ukrain
2. migration policy
41
How has Globalisation and S-S flows made migration more complex in recent years
| 2 point, 3 exampels for 1 , 1 example for 2, non for 3
* new source and host desinations emerging and increased S-S and NS flows.
1. With global structual economic change and Globalisation a mubre of thriving EDCs are emerging across teh globe, and with them a demand for labour (mostly mannual) creating job opertunities. they have emerge predomintly in the south changing the direction of the flow of migration patterns. Rapidly developing EDC require masses of semiskilled manual labour jobs, so migration is encouraged and easier.
1. For example 96% of pakistani migrants of the 7 million aroard are employed in teh Gulf regein, helpin with mostly constrution jobs, e.g building the staiums for the world cup in Quatar
2. Now 36% of migrants flows are S-S vs 35% S-N, vs in 2000 29% were S-S and 39% S-N - more linked tp corriodors of bilateral flows
3. There has been an increse N-S flows. For example the bilateral flow between Brezil and portugal has both 140,000 migrant living in each country, despite Portual being a northern AC with a much smaller polulation
5. South flows to EDCs are much easier as they are closer and one does not have to face the often riggerous emigration policy reqirmenst of the North west/ ACs + much cheaper and easiert o get to
* more young male workers effetcing the demographic of migration
1. for exaple in asia almost 30% of all migrants are men aged 20-39
42
what percentage of migrant flows are S-S vs S-N compared with 2000
Now 36% of migrants flows are S-S vs 35% S-N, vs in 2005 29% were S-S and 39% S-N
43
How has a higher proportion of younger and female migrants, made migration more complex in recent years
| 2 points both with a pice of evidence
* in asia migration is mad dominated with teh average age of migrants being 25-39, this is because migrants are young worker, often taking manual labour positions in EDC's - young working age men
1. e.g manual labour workers in teh gulf region 11.5 million from pakistan
* In europe the majority of migrnat are female, this is becuse most refugees are women and children, furthermore women from AC's are more likly to have been though higher education and they are able to have babies therefore they are more desirable migrant candidates. lastly +65s are the most common migrants, older = more likly life achivements + need more protection if refugree but its also just teh largest group of people by shire numbre.
1. 52% of migrants in AC's are female vs 46% in developing countries
44
what % of migranst are women in AC's vs developing countries
* AC's 52%
* EDCs and LIDCs 46%
