Document Summary
Understand the relationship between globalization, international migration and human trafficking/smuggling. Appreciate the human rights dimension of international migratory flows. Distinguish between smuggling and trafficking: myths vs. realities. Net migration flows (flow of people) about 3% of the world"s population is moving. 640 million would like to migrate permanently (gallup) For 23% the us is the preferred destination. 1 million receive legal permanent resident status in united states annually (dhs) Forced: eligible for more protection under international law (refugee/asylum seeker) no country has a right to turn them away. Gray area between choice and necessity- one individual can have multiple motivations. Supply+demand+social networks=size of an international migration which leads to authorized or unauthorized. Supply- our current global economic policies calling for free trade. People"s means of subsistence and livelihood is changing. This means people are displaced thus they are strongly motivated to migrate for work.
