Their economic differences directly affected and shaped how the North and the South thrived in the early stages of American history. The North’s and the South’s economic views molded how their political and social viewpoints established, from the Southern states agricultural-oriented society, to the Northern states industrialized culture. The Northern states relied heavily on immigrants as an economic workforce.

Before the Industrial Revolution occurred in the late 18th century and 19th century, skilled workers were needed to produce finished goods. The production rates of items were slow due to the limited amount of trained craftsmen and complexity of creating products. This caused goods to be limited in quantity and highly priced. However, the advent of the Industrial Revolution increased production rates, reduced prices of items, and diminished the need for skilled workers. Although the Industrial Revolution positively impacted consumers and businessmen, it also negatively impacted the low skilled laborers used to manufacture goods.

As separate as the two sides of the country were, they were begrudgingly reliant upon each other economically. The South was reliant of the North because the North had all of the port cities and dealt with almost all of the foreign relations and bargaining. Some Southerners, like Hinton Helper from North Carolina, were resentful of their dependence on the North to trade their goods internationally. “It is a fact well known to every intelligent Southerner that we are compelled to go to the North for almost every article of utility and adornment and. . . that we have no foreign trade,”(Helper).

However, they are confronted with challenges due to the lack of interest. The lack of interest found within society can contribute to barriers to ending youth homelessness.

Why were the North and South so contradistinctive? Something to remember when discussing the differences of the North and South in the early days of extreme sectionalism is the point that where you live affects how you live. The North’s geography was rocky and often infertile. The temperature only rose in the summer, and the North suffered brisk winters. On the flip side, in the South, the land was very fertile and

Other issues that arose were sectionalism, referring to the different economies, social structure, customs and political values of the North and South (Charles S. Sydnor, The Development of Southern Sectionalism). Protectionism, the theory or practice of shielding a country's domestic industries from foreign competition by taxing imports. “Northern states, which had heavily invested in their still-nascent manufacturing, could not compete with the full-fledged industries of Europe in offering high prices for cotton imported from the South and low prices for manufactured exports in return. Thus, northern manufacturing interests supported tariffs and protectionism while southern planters demanded free trade” (Thornton & Ekelund 2004, p.

North was in favor of protecting indigenous customs before importing goods. South had the opposite, fearing that the European governments in return reduce US imports of cotton.

Before we begin, let’s take a look at the country and its environs. Nigeria a former British Colony, located in the western part of Africa, it shares borders with Benin, Cameroun, and Niger. A growing population of 150million, labour force of 51million (70% Agriculture, 10% industry and 20% service), urbanisation is less than 40%, GDP is over $300billion, Per capita income is $2300. Nigeria is blessed with different cultures, languages and ethnic groups (252 in total); this was due to the colonization of the British in the early 19th century (Columbia Encyclopaedia). The British amalgamated its protectorates in 1914 to enable stable control and governance which made them create one Nation of Nigeria formed from all the groups, community and empires around the Niger area under their control. Nigeria had her independence on the 1st of October 1960 and since then various civil wars, political and religious unrest in the country to share power and resources amicably.

This proposal is about the effect of rural-urban migration on the four districts of the North West province in South Africa. It entails the background of rural-urban migration as well as the statement of the problem, main objectives, other specific objectives, rationale, hypotheses, identification of variables, the theories of other people concerning the rural-urban migration and the literature review. Rural-urban migration is a type of migration where the migrant moves from a rural area to an urban area due to particular reasons. This concept will be thoroughly discussed in the literature

Over the years, one of the dramatic changes and challenges, in migration configurations in Nigeria is the increasing irregular migration within and outside the region. Since irregular immigrants tend to circumvent being registered, any estimates of the total number are certainly guess estimates. The number of irregular migrants from Nigeria is multiplying and this is fueled by a large pool of unemployed youth, poverty, and distorted information on labour market conditions in European countries. This trend is reinforced by the increasing professionalism of traffickers and bogus travel intermediaries, with scams and promises of passage to greener pastures. For those youths who migrate when conditions fall below a critical threshold of tolerance at home, migration is a response to both the pull of opportunity and the push of abject poverty: socio-economic insecurity has converted migration that would otherwise have taken place internally into irregular migration to Europe. Faced with strict immigration control measures and tightened barriers to legal entry, a growing number of young people are involved in risk-taking ventures and have increasingly adopted more sophisticated, daring and evasive methods in their attempts to enter Europe. Many perish in the process. Those who are apprehended are deported, sometimes in appalling conditions. Some of these illegal migrants live in vulnerable situations, mainly because of their irregular status or the kind of work they do, and many

"Please, sir," replied Oliver, "I want some more." No one will ever forget the simple plea made by the poor hungry little orphan named Oliver Twist. Nobody will be able to omit from his mind the painful blows that Oliver suffered. Nor will anyone cease to recall what it felt like to be young and helpless in a much bigger and stronger world. In an effort to bring the ostracized poverty situation of so many children to the public's attention, Charles Dickens wrote an unforgettable book to touch the hearts of millions. Whether he knew it then or not, he was also bringing a new connotation and worldwide innuendo to the term "child labor".
