Migration

 Globalisation led to a rise in internal and international migration
 Record number of international migrants in 2014 – over 230 million
 Modern transport networks
o Encourage global labour flows
o Every year Australians and South Africans travel to UK to work
 Migration not an inevitable consequence of globalisation
o Rise in trade between countries coincided with a decline in migration
 International migration is relatively regionalised
o Largest labour flows connect neighbouring countries
o E.g. USA and Mexico

National and International Migration Patterns

 Changes in the pattern of demand for labour is linked with globalisation (national scale)
 Core-periphery systems develop and strengthen over time on account of positive feedback
effects
 Uneven economic growth linked to originally to a natural advantage a core region enjoys
 Initial imbalances exaggerated due to the perpetual outflow of migrants, resources and
investment from peripheral regions towards the core
 These flows are called backward effects
