Introduction

The changing demographics of the world

The world is undergoing through serious and colossal changes in demographics due to immigration. Due to such changes has to alter several facets of its management and how it operates. Immigration is the most significant factor in changing the demographics of the world throughout the course of history. With the advent of globalization, the alteration in demographic data has also escalated up to a major extent.

Immigration is defined as “the act where an individual moves to settle in a foreign country on a permanent basis”. It is about leaving one's own country and entering another country to settle down. People who immigrate are known as 'immigrants'. Immigrants later in; become the members of that country. They have rights and responsibilities, just as the regular nationals of the country. Consequently, they play a role in all the administrative and economic domains of that country.

They have to designate different systems for immigrants that include the economy, sociological rights, as well as, the political and legal rights (Shuvalov, 2011).

As a result, countries have to align their resources for immigrants, just as they did for their own citizens. There are different policies and procedures for them to make things work for people who immigrate. Usually people immigrate to achieve a better quality of living, that is, from the less developed country to a more developed country.
