After examining the readings, it is easy to conclude that unauthorized immigrants to the United Sates do not have enough rights. There are laws that protect migrants, such as a few that were discussed in “The Development of International Human Rights Laws” which protects individuals from torture, or enslavement; individuals also have their right of freedom of religion, along with other basic human rights that were not mentioned (Laets). However, the doctrine that was signed by the United States to protect people within its borders is still lacking in important rights that could further protect migrants from harm.
Humans have migrated across the globe sense the dawn of time. Migrating to Europe from Africa. From the Old World, to the New World, and they continue to move across the globe to this day. Countries signing the Universal Declaration of Human Rights have acknowledged this as a basic human right, thusly, people have the right to leave their country (Laets). However, as it was discussed in the reading, people have rights that allow them to leave a country, but there is no rights that are protecting people when they are entering a country (Fitzpatrick, Brotman, & Brotman, 2002).
In addition, one of the reading explained that as a First-World country we tend to take advantage that we have the privilege to go to many places (The development of international human rights laws). Our privilege as citizens are protected, but people who are immigrating sometimes do not have
Immigration is both a domestic issue and global concern. It involves economics, politics, and culture. Unlike other current issues, it has been at the center of the American experience for hundreds of years (Tirman, John). Every year, hundreds of thousands of immigrants from around the world, come to the United States. These immigrants have many different motivations as to why they leave their home country; but as currents events indicate, it is injustice, poverty, and violence in their own country that generally make people move to save themselves and to ensure a better future for their families. Many of these people believe the United States is the best place to go, because there is more freedom, protection, and benefits,
Though immigration is not a new phenomenon in the world’s history, it has been notice that now days immigration has increased more than ever. This is mainly caused because of better ways of communication and transportation, which it makes it possible to people to move and enter other countries. However there are many types of immigrations such as economical, retirement immigrants or even ‘natural disasters’ immigrants. People sometimes seek a new life to save themselves from poverty and misery, thus they decide to enjoy the benefits of another country. Still there are other immigrants who are forced to leave their countries because of wars or even natural disasters, such as the tsunami in Japan 2011. Some philosophers consider closed
As discussed by many, immigrants typically are known to come to America to pursue a sense of freedom that they are not finding in their home country. Whether it is the opportunity for a higher-paying job, a way to practice religion without persecution, or the opportunity to start a family in a safer environment, many immigrants have similar plans. And while people who lean towards a negative outlook on immigration may say that these people take Americans’ jobs and land, others think that immigration gives United States n economic edge in the world, bringing culture to our country.
Declaration of rights: We hold these truths to be standing out for the U.S Citizens to see that immigrants should have a few options in life, and the pursuit of whatever it is that makes them delighted.

Many people wonder why immigrants come to America. Most immigrants come across border for freedom, others for money, but most of the time it’s for their religion. A lot of people run away and come to America because they want ‘Refuge’ AKA (Protection).
It is important to adopt a human rights approach to care and education in practice as children are looked upon as vunerable in society as they cannot express or defend themselves, therefore they need us to do that for them. Every child is equal no matter what gender, ethnicity, religion, language or ability. Because of this, every child should have their rights valued and respected in a care and education practice. Not only is it upto the carer in education practice to make sure that a human rights approach is adopted, but it is upto everyone. Many people say that being in school/nursery is the best years of their lives therefore it is upto us to make sure that in a care or education practice that a human rights approach is taken to ensure that this is the same for all children. It is important to adopt a human rights approach so that all children are developing and learning to their full potential. Also, when at school/nursery, the way others act towards you could impact on how you act towards others. Therefore, by making sure the children are meeting their rights will then hopefully make sure that they will make sure others do.
Upon entry to the United States immigrants from all around the world are met with the harsh stereotypes that not only many Americans share but also the rest of the world.

The United States’ growth and development is largely due to the migration of people from all around the world. That is the basis of why America is referred to as a “melting pot”, people of different ethnicities and cultures come to this country and unite as one. However, numerous institutionalized practices, policies and ideologies in the US makes it clear that immigrants are not welcomed or accepted by many in American society. The application of American ideologies, practices and policies has rejected immigrants and migrants in numerous ways hence negatively impacting their experience in the United States. Immigrants and migrants throughout history and today face the obstacles of being criminalized, exploited, alienated and stereotyped.

Although Immigration is a complex topic with many different factors, the most common reason for immigration is poverty and the hopes of building a new future elsewhere. In the past migration was largely caused by the fore-mentioned issue of poverty, social strife, war, or other political conflicts. As of today these things are still issues and in some cases political asylum does play part in immigration decisions. Globalization is defined as the tendency for business, technologies, or philosophies to spread throughout the world. Globalization is also a major factor in the decisions made before immigration, often times families and friends will eventually re-unite in one region in order to remain together. Living in a more technical world with an advanced society has brought us to the point we are at today, a nearly global community with more in common than in any century before. With the beginning of modern technology in the 1900’s came a more closely knit world, with more communication than what was seen in the past.
