WHY DO PEOPLE MIGRATE
1. Time- space compression - gives sense of transport, roads, infrastructure, trade-routes and enables culture spreading which
encourages movement and enclaves = linked to globalisation and ‘global village’ and increased interconnectedness
2. Economic migrants - work, family, study (send money back to families - migrant remittances)
- Global shift in industry - structural economic change = new international division of labour = increase factories and production of g
and s = comparative advantage and FDI = causes intra regional migration
3. Retirement
4. Refugees/asylum seekers
