Title: A study of causes of migration in globalization: A brief overview
Abstract: This study discusses the need to better define and quantify the an economic characteristics of globalization that is free movement of labour in order to provide a better understanding of this complex phenomenon. The meaning of migration as well as various attempts at quantification of these characteristics is discussed. Since globalization has become an area of widespread public interest, much effort has been devoted toward understanding its characteristics. This may help the world to view globalization through a common lens. Such a common view could be instrumental in understanding and formulating acceptable policies which bring about the desired consequences for the newly integrated world. Even though globalization is about connectedness, there seems to be a big disconnectedness between the fundamental concepts of globalization and quantifying its characteristics.
