Topic: Immigration
To study this political issue, we will be using the following method; Philosophical tradition
Immigrating has been a major concern in developed countries such as the USA, Great Britain Canada, and other countries. Immigrants go to other countries for various reasons that are only known to them. Most go to further their education and to work; others are looking to relocate and acquire citizenship of the country in question. Others seek asylum from their countries into foreign countries, which do not have extradition. However, immigration laws vary from country to country. This is because of various factors such as tradition, religion, bylaws, and even marital status
In this document, however, I will address the problems that people undergo to go to the United States of America and other parts of the world. In most sections of the world, immigrants face problems at both their domicile and foreign countries. Some of these problems involve discrimination based or racial lines, religious differences, and even language barriers.
Immigrants have faced racial discrimination since the 17th century in the era of slave trade. The conflict between blacks and white has been deeply rooted throughout history. It however attains its peak in the 19th and 20th centuries during the colonial era. Although it’s been many years since colonialism ended, traits of racial discrimination can still be traced in the population. A good example is the Black lives matter campaign that took shape after the abuse and murder of a black man by a police officer in America. This has made immigration very difficult.
Another issue that immigrants face is language barriers. While not all immigrants move abroad to further studies, some have no clue of the language in the foreign lands. They, therefore, end up facing challenges and suffering silently before eventually seeking voluntary deportation. This mostly affects those who migrate to the Arabian countries and the Middle Eastern region of the world. Studies show that most of the immigrants in Arabian countries do not understand Arabic. This, therefore, calls for a common language as a mode of communication in these countries
Another problem that immigrants face is religious differences. Although we live in a modern world where religion is a choice, some parts of the world still consider religion as an identity of the state. The Arabian world mostly constitutes of Islamic states. Even though one may not be directly informed, one may be inclined to feel like an outlaw. These issues however will eventually fade out. With the emergence of a modern world, the globe will soon become one unified but diverse global village where one will not have to fear moving o living anywhere.
