Unit 2: Population and Migration Patterns and Processes (copy)

A formula that uses birth rates, death rates, immigration, and emigration statistics to show population growth.

The annual number of live births per 1,000 people in a population.

The annual number of deaths per 1,000 people in a population.

Increased food and nutrition, access to sanitation, education, and healthcare.

Birth Rate - Death Rate / 10%.

The number of immigrants minus the number of emigrants for every thousand members of the population.

The estimated average number of children born to each female of birthing age.

The number of people too young or too old to work compared to the number of people in the workforce.

A theory of how population changes over time, providing insights into migration, fertility, economic development, industrialization, urbanization, labor, politics, and the role of women.

A model that accounts for development due to increasing population growth rates caused by medical advances.

Historically characterized by pre-agricultural societies engaged in subsistence farming and transhumance, with high birth and death rates.

Typically agriculturally based economies with high birth rates, declining death rates, and rapid population growth.

Historically where most "industrialized" or manufacturing-based countries were found, with declining birth and death rates due to urbanization and fertility control.

Converging birth and death rates resulting in limited population growth or decline, with service industries driving the economy.

The theory that global population would eventually outgrow the food supply, but food production has continued to stay ahead of population growth.

The ability to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

Graphical representations of the population structure, gender, and age distribution of a country or place.

The number of people per square unit of land.

The number of people per square unit of farmland.

A major concern in resource-poor regions and globally. It leads to the depletion of nonrenewable energy sources and decreased personal space.

The movement of people from one location to another, usually voluntarily

Specific factors commonly about the rural agricultural landscape and livelihood that force people to leave, such as armed conflict or environmental pollution.

Specific factors commonly about cities that attract people somewhere, such as job opportunities or access to healthcare.

People who move from one region to another within a country.

Movement of people across national borders, involving the relocation and settlement in a different country.

Movement of individuals or groups who are compelled to leave their homes or countries due to factors such as conflict, persecution, or environmental disasters.

Government programs that allow undocumented immigrants the opportunity to apply for official legal status.

The gradual movement of people from rural areas to urban areas in a series of small steps driven by economic opportunities and better living conditions.

The process where immigrants move to a new country because of existing connections with family or friends who have already settled there.

Natality

Difference between the birth rate and the death rate in a population.

When the majority of women are heavily engaged in business, they are far less likely to have children.

How long it would take for a country to double in size.

2.1 TFR

transnational migrants who relocate to a new country to provide labor that isn’t available locally

when a migration flow produces a movement in the opposite direction

ex. migrants from mexico coming to usa, and migrants from usa coming to mexico

barriers that make it harder for migrants to reach their desired location

programs designed to increase the fertility rate

policies attempt to decrease number of births in a country, often used by developing countries

argue that population growth is a serious problem and will become more concerning in the future

population is growing
