INSTRUCTIONS: Answer all of the following three questions. One or two well-developed paragraphs per question will suffice.
1. Think about a migration flow within your family, whether internal, international, voluntary, or forced. The flow can be one you experienced or one you only heard about through family. List the push and pull factors. Then, hypothesize how the migration flow of your family was tied to larger migration flows at the time. Does your family’s migration flow fit into the global map in Figure 3.6 (in the 12th edition of the textbook)? Was your family’s migration at a different scale – nationally or locally? Determine both the scale of your family’s migration flow and identity how the scale of the flow impacted your family – did they find others like themselves at their destination? How would finding or not finding others like themselves impact the identities of your family members who migrated?
2. Analyze Figure 3.30 (in the 12th edition of the textbook), migration to the United States by region. Choose one region and one time. Research an example of a migration flow to the United States from that region at that time (e.g. east European migration in 1900). Describe where migrants from that region primarily settled in the United States. Explain relocation diffusion. Imagine how the migration flow you chose can be seen in the cultural landscape of the destination region in the United States both at the time of migration and today.
3. The fast fashion industry takes runway looks and turns them into low-cost, disposable clothing immediately available to consumers. The fashion industry accounts for $1.2 trillion globally, and the amount of clothing being produced has doubled since 2005. How has time-space compression enabled fast fashion to knock off a celebrity look and make it available to consumers in 24 hours?
