Population flows in an international context

J Regulska et al. J Geog. 1987 Sep-Oct.

Abstract

PIP: The authors feel that geography courses have been remiss in examining migration in its international context and in discussing its global implications. They have constructed this 6-lecture teaching module that addresses the economic, political, and social ramifications of international migration, in addition to the geographical dimension. The module is geared to undergraduate studies in human, social, or population geography, sociology, economics, and political science. Each of the lectures outlined includes special topics for emphasis, supplementary audiovisual materials, and suggested readings. Lectures include: 1) The Importance and Global Effects of International Population Flows; 2) Guest Workers -- Migration of People with Limited Skills; 3) Brain Drain -- Migration of Highly Skilled Professionals; 4) Political Causes of International Migration: Refugee Movement; 5) Refugee Women -- Displaced Majority; and 6) Comparison of Immigration and Refugee Policy in the US and Canada.
