There were a number of schemes which were implemented for the process of rehabilitation and integration of Pakistani refugees. A number of laws were introduced such as The…

Immigration seems to be a problem in our world today. Most people have a problem because they either don’t understand it or they feel that immigrants shouldn’t be in America. I actually have a problem with immigration. I don’t have a problem with this because America was built on the backs of immigrants. Immigrations should not be a major deal for anyone, no unless it’s hurting you. There are many things that can be said about immigration, there are facts and opinions about it. In my research…

Our world never stops growing, but some places cannot keep up with the exponential numbers. Overpopulation is becoming a more apparent problem in today’s world. Alastair Leithead’s “The city that won’t stop growing” and Erle C. Ellis, “Overpopulation Is Not the Problem” both take very different approaches when it comes to the topic of overpopulation. Leithead uses his platform in BBC to shed light onto the city of Lagos, Africa and it’s poor living conditions due to overpopulation. Ellis writes…

of all the services provided to immigrants and the lower taxes they pay (because they have lower earnings) inevitably implies that on a year-to-year basis immigration creates a fiscal hole of at least $50 billion—a burden that falls on the native population”.…

The extraordinary levels of migration in the late nineteenth century were unprecedented at the time, and have never again been repeated on such a scale. Between 1820-1914, almost 60 million Europeans immigrated to the New World, and more than 40 million of these arrived after 1850. America received almost two-thirds of immigrants, but other key destinations included Canada, Australasia and Latin America. Although migration flows from other areas did exist at the time for example, the massive…

Attraction of immigrants can be understood by push and pull factors. Push factors are factors that are forcing them away from their home country. This could be war, political, poverty, no educational/employment opportunities. And the pull factors are the attraction of immigration city. The attraction could be policies, family, lifestyle, education/employment that pulls immigrants towards country and city could have. Usually these pull factors allow the immigrant to have a better life. Countries…

Despite many opposing arguments with a lack of substantial evidence, I am a firm believer in favor of legal immigration. Time and time again, immigrants show how profoundly they impact our modern society and what the added benefits of having a good immigration system are. Asian Americans are the quintessential example of an immigrant. They came to America looking for a better life, brought with them certain skills and knowledge that made them employable, and as a result, integrated into the…

Immigrants over the years have helped to shape many parts of America, however, one interesting group to specifically take not of is the Italians.

What kind of influence did these immigrants have on New York’s formation as a whole? After these questions the next ones become: what kind of social status did the immigrants hold, as well as what were they known for?…
