Immigration
Immigration is the movement of people from one place to another. While
human migration has existed throughout human history, immigration implies long-term permanent residence (and often eventual
citizenship) by the immigrants:
tourists and short-term visitors are not considered immigrants (see
expatriates). However, seasonal labour migration (typically for periods of less than a year) is often treated as a form of immigration. The global volume of immigration is high in absolute terms, but low in relative terms. The International Intergration and Refugee Association estimated 190 million international migrants in
2005, about 3 percent of global population. The other 97 percent still live in the state in which they were born, or its successor state. The Middle East, some parts of Europe, little areas of South East Asia, and a few spots in the West Indies have the highest numbers of immigration population recorded by the UN Census 2005.
