SECTION 3: Social Impacts of the Refugees From the beginning of the civil war and emergence of the ISIS in the Middle East, most people were converted to refugees and left their homeland with the aim of finding a harmony life. These people are experiencing some shocking scenes in their life for the first time like losing one of their beloved ones. Experiencing these moments will change their mentality and their aspects toward their social life. These refugees will negatively have social impacts on those place that they migrate to. While the writer Carlos Encina and news article New American Economy are claiming that the drifting of the refugees has good social impacts including the fast adaptation of the refugees and decreasing the rate of …show more content…
This means that whenever a number of refugees go to a new place, the crime rate in that area would decrease. The claim is wrong because the refugees will do more crime since they think that they will leave that country. The claim could be true if those refugees were just normal people and without ISIS Jihadists. “Islamic State militants are attempting to enter the United States and other Western countries by disguising themselves among the thousands of refugees” (CINTORINO). The Daesh soldiers are trying to escape the war between them and their hostile by blending themselves with the flowing people that are running for their life. However, when these Dash soldiers get to their wanted place they will do crimes. This will lead to an increase the crime rate. For example, three Jewish were “killed and another seriously injured in a shooting at the Jewish Museum in Brussels, Belgium” (CNN). The shooter was an ISIS Militant and he was then revealed as “Mehdi Nemmouche, a 29-year-old Frenchman, who had spent a year in Syria” (CNN). So, the movement of refugees toward developed countries would not bring any good impacts and it will increase the crime rates in the
Most of the hardship will come from racism from other citizens of that country. Refugees will also have to find their way of assimilating to that country to seem “normal” to others. Refugees leave their country for many reasons; to escape war, or to help their family. There is always a reason why refugees immigrate to another country. For example, from the book Inside Out & Back Again says, “After two weeks at sea the commander calls all of us above deck for a formal lowering of our yellow flag with three red stripes.
Being safe and out of war is a really good feeling which is helping the refugees “come back”. Having friends and feeling comfortable are both examples of how Ha and other refugees “come
“Many [of these people] are escaping violence, poverty, or persecution….” (Zissou, Smith, 15). Migrants use all of these characteristics: bravery, knowledge, and perseverance while fleeing to another country. They know that they could be caught and killed. but most of those people are smart and brave enough to escape that.
The lives of refugees are turned “inside out” out when they are forced to flee because they have to leave the only home they have ever known and try to figure out a way to leave their old lives behind. They are not leaving their country because they want to but because they are forced to and it can feel like
Introduction Australia is said to be a multicultural and multiracial country. So why can’t we, as a country and as a nation, say yes to immigrants fleeing from a different country? As immigration to Australia is supposably apart of our history and it would be wrong not to continue on with the actions of our ancestors. Paragraph 1 As of 2014 – 2015, Australia accepted 13,750 refugees in total. Paragraph 2 • What are refugees and asylum seekers?
The estimated number of refugees leaving their own country since World War II is one hundred million ("Refugee”). A refugee is a person who has left their country because of fear of their safety due to violence, race, religion, or war. Supporting and solving today’s refugee crisis is especially controversial because of the current events, financing, and security issues. ("Refugee Facts”). Climate change and natural disasters sometimes cause people to leave their homes or countries.
He also talks about how much of a problem it would be if we close the borders. Agdas says “If we close the borders, we'll find new images of thousands of people lingering on the European border.” Agdas uses great transitioning words to make the argument stronger. The author knows that the strategies he has used will change a lot people’s point of view on refugees and how they really are. The author knows how use real facts and not use some fake propaganda.
This comprehensive annotated bibliography discusses about the poor mental health of the refugees and asylum seekers under detention in developed countries. This sits within the “Social Work Practice in Mental Health” and “Social Work with Refugee Survivors of Torture and Trauma” categories of Social Work fields of practice (Alston and McKinnon, 2005) and uses sources from Australian publications on these issues. The sources cited suggest that due to the large number of refugees and asylum seekers, governments of developed countries have implemented policies to deter people from seeking asylum such as immigration detention policies, strict visa restrictions, rigorous border checks and the stopping of voyages of vessels suspected of carrying smuggled asylum seekers (Silove et al. 2000). The refugees and asylum seekers go through tremendous amount of mental suffering and the worst affected are small children and adolescents.
To. Mrs. Hopkins, Recently, I have read your controversial and callous article ‘If Britain is prepared to provide an all-inclusive resort service for asylum seekers, the least they can do is wear a bloody wristband.’ From a student with a family member who has experienced being a refugee, I know that the issues regarding asylum seekers and refugees are critical in the modern society. Therefore, I feel that your article, mostly oversimplified and prejudiced, could mislead lots of readers to have undesirable views on those people who are in need.
The refugees flee their country to find a safer life that offers freedom. They venture out into dangerous journeys to find a country that is able to accept and provide for them. Their decision to leave causes them to choose their freedom over what little safety they had so that they can find a safer place to live. They wanted to live in a safer country that also offered more freedom to them. By casting their safety aside and using their freedom to escape they’re able to find a better safety.
Somali Refugees In American Since about the late 1900’s Somali Refugees have been coming to the United States in hope for a better lifestyle than they had at home with famine and war. Somali refugees are brought to the U.S. by different organizations that support families from other countries that have had a hard life styles and isn’t easy living in their home country. They arrive in the U.S. being new to the country and not having much understanding of the daily living and also feeling unsettled.
Not only that, but they do it by the millions, moving in independent crowds step by step on the grounds that there is security (Acuesta, 2017). The explanations for their movement include issues such as social, racial, religious and political persecution, war, climate change, hunger and gender orientation. These vulnerable refugees have no other choice than to seek protection and we are denying their human rights and stripping away their human dignity. A United Nations Refugee Agency survey conducted in Australia in 2011 showed that 35% of people favoured turning back boats or detention of arrivals and deportation, while only 22% favoured eligibility for permanent settlement. Clearly there is much controversy surrounding this issue as it can create many effects within a nations, both positive and negative.
This is the phenomenon in which human dignity is being stripped from refugees. To begin, people displaced are left with no sense of security; thus, leading to a deep sense of hopelessness as their life and those under their care is all in the hands of other people. Next, refugees are often mistreated and have a stigma around them. One man interviewed talked of the shame induced upon him due to being a stateless drifter, although his position in life was entirely out of his control. Finally, displaced people cannot advance their situation as jobs are not viable and their youth are not receiving an educated.
A refugee is a person who has been forced to leave their home country in order to escape war, persecution, or natural disaster. There are many different types of refugees, these include refugees who are escaping war, social discrimination, racial discrimination, religious persecution, those who are seeking aid after a natural disaster, political unrest, and those who fear for their lives and the lives of their family. These people are given refugee status and are placed in designated refugee camps across the country where they are supposed to be cared for and educated, but this is not happening. Many of the countries only provide shelter for the refugees but do not provide the rest of the basic needs. There are many factors that contribute to a person becoming a refugee these include war, famine, racial prejudice, religion, harassment or torture due to political views, nationality, and natural disaster.
Finally, from the Syrian civil war, 250,000 unfortunate people have died. When multitudes of people migrate to one country, that country would, in turn, become extremely pressured. “The pressures caused by massive influxes of people can be overwhelming”(“What's Driving the Global Refugee Crisis?”). Every year, Germany alone spends 21.7 billion dollars on anything which is refugee related, and with oncoming demand in Germany, this number continues to grow higher. The European Refugee Crisis has also displaced nine million Syrians’ homes, making it troublesome for countries to house them.
