Migration Past and Present

Start with a mind map

Begin with a map titled Migration in the past and present. Several maps share this title, so open one and follow its branches from migration in the past. The excerpts describe mobility and people's movement from one place to another.

Some of these maps also include migration and modernity, globalization, migration in Latin America and types of migration. Their branches give you a way to organize the themes as you study. You can then open another map with the same title and compare what it includes.

Add the flashcard deck

After looking at a map, move to the flashcard deck on language and migration. Its excerpt includes the colonial period, the British Empire, capitalism, colonial domination and the state. Use the cards to practice recalling these terms, then return to the map and consider how the material fits alongside its themes.

This page has no quizzes. The mind maps and flashcards offer a different way to study: use a map to follow the branches, and the cards to practice recalling the terms they present.

Use the page within Migration

Migration Past and Present is a topic within the Migration unit in Sociology. The maps bring together past movement and themes such as modernity and globalization, while the flashcard deck offers material on the colonial period. Together, they provide starting points for studying this section of the unit.

As you work, note which branches or terms you want to look at again. Try pairing a map with the flashcard deck as you study.
