5. Demography is the study of human
populations – their size, composition and
distribution across space – and the process
through which populations change. Births,
deaths and migration are the 'big three'
of demography, jointly producing population
stability or change.
6. The Demographic Transition
The process of economic development—of
industrialization and the accumulation of
wealth on a per capita basis—brings about
a change in birthrates and death rates that
follows a fairly universal pattern called the
demographic transition
7. Stages of Demographic Transition
First Stage: High Birth Rate And High Death Rate
Second Stage: High Birth Rate And Declining Death Rate
Third Stage: Declining Birth Rate And Low Death Rate
Fourth Stage: Low Birth Rate And Low Death Rate
Fifth Stage: Birth Rate And Death Rate Very And Almost
Equal
42. Population Policies
One Child & Two-child
Contraceptives and abortions are free.
Live in Relations
Polygamy Vs Monogamy
Lesbians
Pronatalist
Sex Education
Feminism
45. Migration
Movement from one part of something to
another. Migration from poor to richer states.
Millions of people from the global South have
crossed international borders, often illegally, to
reach the North.
46. Migration
Millions of people from the global
South have crossed international
borders,
often illegally, to reach the North.
53. Benefits and losses
It create complex pattern of winner
and losers
Immigrants provide cheap labour
Benefits the host economy overall
Compete for jobs with poor citizens
of the host country
54. Role of States
Industrialized states try to limit immigration
State fear from integration, because it became difficult to
keep out illegal immigrants.
State debate how to handle the influx of migrants
Illegal immigration claim to be refugees in order to be
allowed to stay.
Terrorism and Islam-o-phobia
58. Treatment with refugees
Accepted by other states as per international
norms. They are kept in or housed in
refugee camps until they can return home.
Refugees from war or natural disasters are
housed in refugee camps
Refugees of political persecution are given
asylum to stay in the new state
59. Problems faced by Refugees
Die in boat fleeing
Suffered at the hands of smugglers/
pirates
Leave them abandoned as illegal
immigrants
60. Statistics
2014
15 million worldwide
30 million IDPs
5 million Palestinian fall under UNRWA
2015
3 million refugees in Turkey, Lebanon, Iraq and Jordan
6.5 million IDPs
63. Remittances
Money sent home by migrant
workers to individuals (usually
relatives) in their country of
origin.
64.
65. Remittances
Unlike FDI, remittances are not transferred between companies or
wealthy individuals, but usually between families
In 2012, worldwide remittances surpassed half a trillion dollars
In 2014, worldwide remittances near $600 billion
Help poor states such as Philippines & Bangladesh improving their
investment ratings.
Remittances also increase dependency of poor states on wealthy
ones.
66. Should wealthy states close their borders
or expel migrant populations?
No. this would create hardship for
individual families as well as the
economies of the developing
countries.
68. Trafficking
In addition to migration and refugees, a
growing number of people—estimated at
about 700,000 annually—are trafficked
across international borders against
their will.
69. Trafficking
They include both sex slaves and labor slaves
20,000 of these people are trafficked to US
In 2010, the U.S. State Department listed 13 countries making
insufficient efforts to stop human trafficking
In 2014, worldwide remittances near $600 billion
Help poor states such as Philippines & Bangladesh improving their
investment ratings.
Remittances also increase dependency of poor states on wealthy
ones.

2. Avoid close contact (within about 6 feet, or 2 meters) with anyone who is
sick or has symptoms.
3. Stay home as much as possible and keep distance between yourself and
others (within about 6 feet, or 2 meters), especially if you have a higher risk
of serious illness. Keep in mind some people may have COVID-19 and
spread it to others, even if they don't have symptoms or don't know they
have COVID-19.
4. Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, or use
an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol.
5. Cover your face with a cloth face mask in public spaces, such as the grocery

in an area with ongoing community spread. Only use nonmedical cloth
masks — surgical masks and N95 respirators should be reserved for health
care providers.

unless you're going to get medical care. Avoid public
transportation, taxis and ride-sharing if you're sick.
