Migration:For your case study of an international migration stream, evaluate the impacts on both source areas and
destination areas:
+ More than 50% of income earnt by Mexican migrants are sent back as remittances
Legal and illegal immigrants send $6 billion a year back to Mexico
Improve standard of living, 47% of Mexican population is living under the poverty line
(reduces Mexicans rapidly re-entering the US illegally)
-Mexican countryside has a shortage of economically active people
Eg. Santa Ives village has lost 2/3 of their inhabitants
Increased dependency ratio, remittances spent on healthcare on elderly rather than
improving education (86.1% literacy rate)
+ USA benefitted from 4.6 million signed contracts from 1942 to 1964
10% of salaries deducted
Increased economic growth exploiting cheap laborers
These impacts may vary with time, with location, for different groups (both in the migrants and the rest
of the population) and the ability of the area to cope with them
