Overview
The flow of people globally via migration has shaped nations like Australia, and continues to be an important trend that influences social, cultural, political and economic issues within national and international arenas. This course will provide theoretical and conceptual underpinnings for understanding migration, and will take a case study approach to specific issues such as humanitarian and economic migration, settlement policies, and cultural phenomena. In addition to students majoring in International relations, students in other study areas such as history, social justice and entrepreneurship, and journalism will find this course informative.
In this course, you will investigate and examine the theoretical and conceptual bases for migration as a global phenomenon. You will also explore contemporary and historical issues in global and Australian migration trends, and the ways in which these shape cultures, societies, economies and politics across various contexts. By analysing a range of international and Australian case studies, you will interpret major trends such as humanitarian and economic migration, and settlement policies.
