After reading many articles, I have come across many alarming issues going on in North Africa and the Middle East. The fact of the matter is that many citizens come from these places that were once their home towns or villages, yet they are now displaced and are looking for a way out for a better life. Many of these citizens of North Africa and the Middle East are escaping violence, war, hunger and many more factors that are taking […]

Get help with your assigmentThere are 25.4 million people who were forced to flee to other countries as refugees (Huber and Reid). Many refugees struggle to find a safe place to live after they are exiled from their country. Not all places welcome refugees; therefore, they are at risk. In the debate over the refugee crisis, one controversial issue has been that refugees should be allowed to seek refuge in America. On the other hand, many conservatives contend that they should not be permitted […]
In the United States, many people believe refugees and asylum seekers came for the same reason as immigrants, but they don’t. A refugee is a person who is forced to leave their home country due to the violence and persecution experienced and was recognized by the United Nations, while an asylum seeker has to go through the process so that they can be able to qualify as a refugee. (Tonin) An immigrant is a person who permanently came to the […]
Iraq is a country of southwestern Asia, the middle east. Iraq gained its independence in 1932 but still remained subject to the British empire. Iraq was able to overthrow the monarchy in 1958. It was later found that Iraq had large amounts of oil reserves coming in second in the world. These discoveries were able to help with financial assistance on new buildings and remodeling. Iraq would then suffer from two major wars, Iran-Iraq War and Persian Gulf War. The […]
From a basic understanding, the concept of human rights determines the rights given to all individuals. With the spark of the 19th century, there was a rise in awareness on the interpretation of those rights to life and freedom; however, not all states ensure absolute protection. In International Relations, human rights are considered a work in progress and the overall debate on universal standards are still in effect due to cultural factors. The end of WWII was when human rights […]
Then, fire and chaos. The story of Rome’s decline begins here. In the late summer of 376, 200,000 men, women and children had appeared on the north bank of the Danube asking to be taken in as refugees. They were Gothic people’s, reportedly fleeing from massive amounts of violence which had occurred on the steppe just north of the Black Sea the earlier that year. An alien people riding innumerable horses with a strange language and stranger names had apparently […]
Step two of the Justice test calls into question if the distribution is fair between all parties involved. In this case, both sides of the argument stand to gain and lose something. The Syrian refugees stand to gain a new home while being open to discrimination and prejudice. The country accepting refugees and its citizens stand to gain long-term benefits such as decreases in their unemployment and increases in their health care system. They also stand to gain cultural knowledge […]
Many Latin American refugees are fleeing from the violence and poverty of their home country to the United States. They chose to flee to the United States in hopes of finding more job opportunities and an assurance of their family’s safety. Latin American refugees are being marginalized because the government is viewing the refugees as a threat and not allowing them to cross the southern border because they are known to have a bad reputation of having a high rate […]
The purpose of this paper is to bring to light the rationale behind the refusal of refugees into the United States. In the hopes to debunk the opposition that have stigmatized such an opinion and to disabuse individuals that are obdurate. Introduction Being placed in this predicament i’ve experienced great frustration with such a controversial subject. Due to carelessness and being in the midst of my youth I seldom encounter such a topic let alone have to accost one. Under […]
Introduction My interest in immigration cases started after I arrived to United States back in 2007, I came to the country with a tourist visa and when I decided to remain in the country my legalization process begun, as an immigrant I had to overcome many obstacles throughout my legalization process and I think that even now that I am a US citizen I still have some difficulties regarding assimilation processes to the American culture and the system. As an […]
TASK I There has been a massive exodus of people from different parts of the world as people are fleeing from their countries in search of a safe and secure environment. The challenges and dangers that they face as they flee from their country indicate that most prefer death to staying in their country. The number has soared in the last half a decade as wars and political instability in different regions of the world has necessitated people to move […]
Social Problem Thousands and thousands of people have been forced to leave their home country and flee to neighboring countries due to their fear of persecution because of wars, environmental disasters, politics, and more. They move to other countries hoping to find help and safety, leaving behind everything they own, even some of their beloved ones as well as their memories. Many of these refugees move when their country cannot afford to help them and they are in extreme poverty, […]
Refugees are at a higher risk for mental disorders than any other population. The Gale Encyclopedia of Public Health defines refugees as individuals who have been displaced from their home or native countries due to various reasons such as: war, drought, and natural disasters (Nienstedt). Refugees’ exposure to war, trauma, violence and extreme torture throughout premigration and during their escape makes them very susceptible to mental health issues. Common mental health problems that affect refugees are post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), […]
ABSTRACT. It has become a reality that most refugee situations are found in the worlds’ most hostile environs. This is due to the continuing violence and persecution of refugees and thus they cannot return to their countries. For over twenty years Kenya has been receiving a large refugee population. The perception of refugee issues has taken a different stance from being a humanitarian issue to a security threat in return this has made the government of Kenya to take the […]
People suffering in foreign countries are working to obtain a refugee status. However, only one percent will be able to resettle. The question that will determine their success in obtaining aid or resettlement is: why are they fleeing these countries and what is the United States current doing to help the refugees of these nations? The definition of a refugee excludes many people that are in need of resettlement. Even with these exclusions there is a huge population that falls […]
Since the initiation of the Syrian civil war back in 2011, over 400,000 casualties have been reported by the UN. Among these casualties are innocent men, women, and children who have lost their lives during the conflict. As a result, many Syrian refugees have fled their country seeking liberty and aid in other foreign countries. Despite several nations opening their borders to these fleeing refugees, the United States has adamantly continued to turn their back on these innocent refugees. Many […]
Abstract Refugees and asylum seekers are some of the most vulnerable groups within a community. These groups are victims of human trafficking, abuse of their labour rights and grave instances of exploitation. National policies attached to these groups have faced scrutiny in recent years as various organisations raise concerns on the large number of individuals and families that are living destitution, poverty and unable to access social care services for various reasons (including hostile environment policy). A systematic review of […]
The orthodox conceptualization and assimilation of the terms ‘refugee’ and ‘protection’ may both need to correct to accommodate with recent global climate change situations. A rudimentary apprehension is that while refugees from persecution and war are protected by international law, it is unclear what conventions and policies protect people dislocated by extreme weather events. This section of my thesis seeks to reveal the discourse of the term ‘climate refugee’ and conceptualize reasons for which there is an absence of international […]
The imprisonment of the immigrant separates the families of the immigrants, given that the children, women, and men are jailed in different prisons upon the prosecution. The freedom that they sought by entering America as refugees is no longer available. The hard policies against them have contributed to the violation of the human rights for these asylum seekers, who search for and are in need of humanitarian assistance from the American government.During the first week of adoption for the zero-tolerance […]
The world is full of people forced to leave their homes and countries for having better lives as a result of political disorder and persecution. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), estimated that their number can reach to 40 million. More than half of them within their countries borders and over 12 million are those who have fled to other countries to escape ethnic, religious, and political persecution (Debatewise, 2016). According to Pew Research Center (2016), only in […]
Australia is infamous for how it views and treats the countless number of refugees who try to seek asylum here. These refugees are often put through years of mental deterioration and physical stress, while housed within one of the many detention centres all over Australia and in neighbouring locations. The most notorious of these include the likes of the Nauru detention centre and the MITA (Melbourne Immigration Transit Accommodation). These two places are known for having sub-par living environments that […]
Abstract Being an adolescent usually means a stafe in life associate with a period of transition from childhood to adulthood. Therefore, adolescence generally is co-related with puberty, which consists of a biological phenonemon marked by the increase of hormones, adrenal and gonadal, resulting in development of secondary sex characteristics. This stage is also associated to risk-taking behaviors and increased emotional reactivity. For many of the individuals going through this period if life, adolescence means spending less time with their parents […]
Climate change is no longer a hypothetical situation but the reality of world politics in the twenty-first century. Although extremely controversial, research suggests this predicament will deeply affect the lives of millions who will be forcibly displaced from their homes and required to seek refuge elsewhere. Since 2008, the UNHCR has stated that there has been an annual average of 21.5 million displaced people by climate-related disasters – more than those fleeing war or persecution. The current legal practices protecting […]
Newly resettled refugees are among the most vulnerable population to physical and mental health disorders (Nazzal et al., 2014), and those from the African Great Lakes Region are not an exception. Although the US serves as a safe place for refugees, many come with their past traumatic and painful experiences from their home countries, which impact their emotional and mental well-being. Due to life-threatening experiences during war, in exile and during the resettlement process, refugees may be at a particularly […]
The United States Immigration topic is viewed differently from the perspective of a native American as opposed to someone coming from another country as an immigrant. Immigrants experience long lines at immigration offices, with the hope of having their number called to be able to speak with an officer who performs the screening process. In addition, an immigrant finds it hard to survive a 6-month parole period while waiting for an immigration interview. Immigrants can also experience an application being […]
Music gives a soul to a universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything. This quote was written by Plato and it reminds myself why music is so important in the world, especially to those who suffer from various diagnoses. Music Therapy is a therapeutic method that incorporates music as a device to help improve both mental and behavioral problems that numerous people are suffering from. I have decided to focus on refugees who suffer […]
According to the Department of Homeland Security, a refugee is someone who flees their home country because they fear persecution based on religion, race, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group (Refugees and Asylees, 2018). Refugees apply for asylum to another country to find a new place to live; the current legislation and policies make it difficult for one to be granted asylum in the United States. Furthermore, the United States government should take the current humanitarian […]
