Tahar Ben Jelloun, a Moroccan writer, states: “Migration is no longer a solution; it’s a defeat. People are risking death, drowning every day, but they’re knocking on doors that are not open.” Probably, the author is right because most of the migrants even do not know what awaits them in a new country. Before thinking about the effects of migration, people should draw a distinction between emigration and immigration. The immigration is beneficial, whereas the emigration is totally disadvantageous for a country. People from industrially backward regions do not value their current lifestyle and conditions, and they cannot resist the lure of a wonderful life in economically advanced countries. Without thinking about the consequences that will follow their decision, people decide migrate from own motherland. And more likely these consequences will be negative not only for emigrants but also for countries people are going to leave and migrate to. Such a movement of people may leave a dent on the economics of the host countries, and on the society and customs of the left countries. In 21st century, it is already time to start actions in order to decrease the incidence of migration. Although for some people emigration is helpful to solve their own personal problems, it is obvious that it may lead to several effects like social devastation, brain drain and increasing the level of economy. Foremost, emigration is guilty for emerged social and cultural devastation. Allowing own
The nature of western migration was good and bad. With out western migration America wouldn’t be what it is now.

The British imperialist rule impacted India in many negative as well as positive ways, they killed many innocent Indians, suppressed and disrespected their culture but also promoted justice regardless of social rank. The British took over India in 1757 with the British East India Company at The Battle of Plassey.

The majority in the United States believes that if all illegal Mexican immigrants get deported, then the United States will gain prosperity. However, the U.S economy would be negatively affected by their migration. Many people across the country, are organizing to withstand the deportation of the illegal immigrants.I personally connect with this situation because several of my loved ones are involved. Some people claim that illegal Mexican immigrants are taking Americans' jobs away. In reality, these people are willing to do the jobs that the citizens do not want to do. Half of the population of employees working in orchards or packing sheds are Hispanics. In comparison to the agriculture hard labor duties, housekeeping departments consist of about fifty percent of Hispanics. If all illegal Hispanics get deported, then the agricultural industries and housekeeping departments would decrease in production and income. Also, the amount of tax money that is collected annually would decrease, also affecting the economy. Even though the majority of the Hispanics are undocumented, they still pay
The Great Migration was a significant movement in history for the United States. The Great Migration was brought about for several reasons, many of them being factors that pushed African Americans out of the South, and pulled them up to the North.
