gration and brain drain in sub-Saharan countries:case study Cameroon. Introduction Migration is a natural human reflex as old as humanity. Although a natural reflex it can be effectively argued that some factors have accounted for its pervasive nature in contemporary times. However, with the unprecedented rise of globalization in all its facets, international migration and subsequently brain drain (most frequently from the global south to the north) remain one of those consequences of globalization
Migration has always been part of human societies. Mobility and adaptation to distinct environments are trademarks of our evolutionary history. According to UN’s International Organization for Migration estimates , there are around a billion migrants around the world, 230 million of them living outside their birth countries (international migrants).

grasses and without these natural grasses the soil was vulnerable to wind erosion. Additionally whatever natural grass they had left the nutrients where drained by livestock in the area since they fed off of it and lived on it. Steinbeck witnessed the migration of thousands of immigrants moving west in order to escape the black blizzards, these black blizzard as they were called(or black rollers)occurred when the wind picked up the sand and dirt carrying it into the air as high as six feet tall leading
CHAPTER 2 LITERATURE REVIEW IMMIGRANTIONS 11. Migration of people is old as recorded history of the world. From the ancient history migrants find some reason to move from a country to another. The reasons may be safety, food, shelter or any other personal requirement. Migration has both positive and negative impacts for both countries which are involved. As many other human activities, migration also has increased rapidly and it has grabbed the world attention today. For many countries it has

This trend of “migration overtime will see an increase in services previously treated as an inpatient now treated as an outpatient service” (Vesely, 2014, p.22).
the most noticeable element which people around the world face in the 21st century: it was globalization, the growing interconnectedness of people and places through converging processes of economic, political, and cultural changes.

Whereas Europe was not a major civilization area before 600 CE, by 1450 it was connected to major trade routes, and some of its kingdoms were beginning to assert world power. Major empires developed in both South America (the Inca) and Mesoamerica (the Maya and Aztecs.) China grew to have hegemony over many
facts are disputable based on current data. The world supply of grains is not stagnate, rather decreased because of trends in developed countries where feedlot grains are used more efficiently. Eberstadt (2001) also argues that Brown et al.'s statement, that no country has experienced and sustained a three-percent growth rate is false, by reminding the authors the population in America grew from 3.9 million to 17.1 million between 1790 and 1840 resulting in a three-percent growth rate which it has
