The movement of people across international borders can be initiated by conflict, economic reasons or the chance to achieve political freedoms. Migration issues have taken center-stage in the U.S. and EU, as citizens increasingly worry about job security and terrorism.

Nearly 200 million migrants in the world today, if they lived together in a country it would be about the fourth biggest in the world ... and the numbers are increasing rapidly.

If this event sounds interesting, you should check out Susan Erickson's discussion of global migration February 14. Attend the dicussions of Mexico on February 7 and February 20, but balance that with a discussion of how migration is reshaping France on January 19.
