fix it. During my research I learned a great deal about the immigration as an issue and I am going to present a comparative between the United States and Western Europe on how immigration as a national issue is being addressed. Let’s look at the American emigration system. President Barack Obama has issued statements on how his administration is currently dealing with or will deal with the immigration system in the United States. The Obama Administration is focusing on controlling immigrants at…

The movement of people to the United States, has commenced with the first European settlements in about 1600. Starting around 1600, British and other Europeans settled primarily on the East Coast. Later Africans were brought as slaves, the transit of Suriname is a good example of the slavery transport. Later on, aviation travelling became cheaper, thus resulting in successive waves of Asian immigration. Momentarily, the Hispanic, are being the predominant causes of the contemporary immigration…

country. The United States is averaging about 1.3 million new immigrants every year. Additionally,there are about 750,000 births to immigrant families. In 2002 the number of immigrants without a high school diploma is 3.5 times more than native born Americans. 17.6 % of immigrants and their children under 18 live under the poverty line, compared to 10.6% of native born and their offspring. Based on findings from the 2010 U.S. Census, our immigrant population reached 40 million. Said to be…

within our global society. It’s important to note that it’s not only the responsibility of European governments to create systems for resettlement because of their proximity to the situation, as Singer points out with the Bengali crisis, but governments around the world including the United States, must cooperate across international borders to solve this massive crisis. Australian, Canadian, and American government must look at the way that countries like Germany are taking charge and…

The European refugee crisis is the first migration crisis of the 21st century. One of the primary causes why Europe is dealing with a staggering influx of migrants is due to the increase of violence in the refugee’s countries. Ever since the division of the Ottoman Empire, conflicts in the Middle East and Sub-Saharan Africa have become common. A certain hatred and rivalry lives and thrives in this region of the world and can clearly be felt throughout the differences among their populations and…

How Do We Define Who Is “American”? How to define an American? What a hard question to be answered among all immigrants who live in America. Most people could not distinguish between the people who are living in America from those who are actually Americans. In the last two decades, many people have moved to America seeking a better life. They came from all over the world with different social class and backgrounds to live in this geographical location; therefore, America is considered as a…

across world history, often characterized by implementation of racialized discriminatory immigration practices. In this essay, I am going to compare and contrast the history of the Japanese internment in the United States during WWII with recent European Union processes. In 1942, President Roosevelt executed an enforced relocation of Japanese citizens and immigrants, which lasted for four years. It was officially declared as an authorized evacuation of all “enemy aliens” from designated areas…

The letters Crèvecoeur wrote were placed into a compilation, creating The Letters From an American Farmer. These letters are important because Crèvecoeur was a common, natural man, who had no influence by any social institutions, which gave his personal hands on ideas and opinions about America a very raw and simplistic approach. Crèvecoeur elaborates on his experiences travelling…

Italy and the United States are not much different when it comes to figuring how to keep their financial spending in check. While the United States has been going through a small depression since 2010, we have been able to stay afloat financially and have begun to come out the other side. Italy on the other hand has just begun trying to come up with a solution to their financial hardship. This solution is called Atlante and is a “bank-rescue fund” that was created to try and bail out the Italian…

What are Arab men and women like? What are white/American (or European, depending on the film) men and women like? How do they compare to each other? If other ethnic groups are represented, identify them and describe what they are like according to the film. In The Mummy, like the region, its inhabitants are…
