What is an emigrant? »Its definition and meaning

Anonim

An emigrant is a person who leaves his country with the purpose of settling in another. An individual becomes an emigrant for a basic reason, because the economic, political and social situation of his country of origin does not adapt to the needs of the person, forcing his nomadic instinct to take a new course in search of a better future. The migrants have existed in all known cultures, social conflicts and wars, economic crisis or illness, are the main reasons why a person takes this hard decision.

The fundamentals on the issue of Emigrants can be classified into two, legal emigrants and illegal emigrants. The legal migrants are those who meet all requirements of law in a moving country because they are the ones who spend the entire procedure required by the country and who are also receiving nationality or permits rigor for a stay without problems.

The illegal immigrants are entering a country incognito, without even submit documentation at a border or airport accrediting them as foreigners who leave with a non - touristy end or working but claim that their stay permanent. The most mediatic of the cases of illegal emigration of people is that of Mexicans, thousands of them cross by other means than air and the land border the enormous wall that divides the United States and their country, in search of evil called "American Dream" in which they try to get a better job with more earnings than they can get in Mexico.

The United States government has been very strict with Mexican emigrants for years, deporting them and prosecuting them for not doing the legal procedure to obtain legal residence, however, the exodus of emigrants is such that it has been useless to stop the passage of Mexicans to North American lands. What has happened in the last decade is not a relaxation of the norm, it is rather a humanization of control of emigrants, even allowing them to provide educational and productive training for a possible insertion into American society.
