Global Trends in International Migration

Course Description:
Worldwide international migration is a large and growing phenomenon, with more than 200 million people now living outside of their home countries for extended periods. Understanding the complex dynamics behind international migration is essential to improved policies and programs to address the multiple causes and consequences of these movements of people. This course provides an overview of international migration numbers and trends, causes of population movements, the impact of international migration on source and receiving countries, and policy responses to population movements. The course also provides an introduction to the major theories underpinning the study of international migration, including the new economics of labor migration, dual labour market theory, world systems theory, cumulative causation, and migration networks theory. The course will also briefly examine the international legal regime regarding migration.
