Exposé Immigration

INTRODUCTION

Since the dawn of the humanity, the populations moved, from a country to the other one, from a continent to the other one. They moved sometimes for some time, sometimes for ever. But we notice that several African countries crosses the Mediterranean Sea there to go(surrender) in Europe via(including) Libya putting their life in danger to be able to have a better life. In our development we shall handle the causes of the immigration, the consequences, the solutions and finally we shall announce the conclusion.

1. CAUSES OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.

Why such an influx of immigrants to the West? Why do these people take risks bordering on suicide? Why ? They find themselves faced with a difficult choice: "To advance is to die; to retreat is to die. So, better go forward and die. "

Why do they leave their country? No man leaves his country for the pleasure of immigrating

• The economy.

Since the decolonization, we see the accentuation of the underdevelopment. Sub-Saharan Africa has to import the majority of industrial products and consumption which it needs. These have more and more raised costs, because of the strong devaluation of most of the currencies. So the foreign debt increases dangerously. Furthermore, subsistence crops which have to feed the populations are sacrificed to the advantage of export crops, in the name of the imperative of the development. Yet , the countries of the South have no grip on the fluctuation in the courts of these cultures which are one-sidedly fixed by the western industrial nations. That must face the hunger, the population has to look for a place where the food will not be a part of the daily concern. A kind of Promised Land, country of the safety. And this place, it is the West.

• Politics.

The second cause of migration is of course the social injustice and the big precariousness. Since the end of the cold war, the helps collapsed at ever known levels.

The fight for the power and the access to the wealth opened more and more devastating internal and outer conflicts. An African on five lives a war situation; and the violence is becoming the usual mode of the social relationships between younger children and elder sons, rich and poor people, ethnic groups and different religions.

• And all the other evils that sub-Saharan Africa suffers.

AIDS continues its ravages (in two thousand seven, twenty-two, five million sub-Saharans live with HIV); hunger (two hundred million Africans are hungry, because Africa remains the continent most affected by hunger and malnutrition); water (despite some of the largest freshwater reserves in the world, four hundred and fifty million Africans still suffer from lack of running, drinking water); unemployment (jobs are scarce and wages are too thin)

1. CONSEQUENCE OF CLANDESTINE IMMIGRATION

• Social Point of View

In the country of welcome, increase in ethnic minorities phenomena of racism and xenophobia. On the other hand, in the country of origin, population decline tends to reduce social conflict and stabilize political power.

• economic point of view:

For the host country, the immigration is a positive effect because there is ready contribution of a workforce has the employment. But she also dresses negative aspects because there is a population to be managed. Besides, the sending of money towards the country of origin has an impact on the exchange rate in the country of immigration. For the country of origin, the immigration is positive by the sending of money to families. However the reduction in available workforce in these regions hinders any effort of funny relaunching
