GLOBAL SECURITY ISSUES: TACKLING MIGRATION AND REFUGEE CRISES
Abstract
Global security and migration are closely related to each other and mutually
influence the situation in the world. Migration can be both a cause and a consequence of
threats to global security. One of the main reasons for migration is instability and conflict
in countries, which can lead to security threats both within and outside the country.
Armed conflicts, terrorism, human rights violations, deteriorating economic situation and
environmental disasters can force people to leave their homes and seek a better life in other
countries. On the other hand, mass migration can cause tension in receiving countries, which
can lead to social and economic problems, as well as security threats. Illegal and uncontrolled
migration can contribute to crime, human trafficking and in some cases terrorist attacks.
From an economic perspective, migration may potentially lead to significant negative effects
such as increased unemployment among natives, increased shadow economy and may put
upward pressure on housing costs. To ensure global security, it is necessary to develop a
comprehensive approach to migration management that will consider the interests of all
parties. This includes strengthening international cooperation, tackling the root causes of
migration and ensuring sustainable development in source countries. Thus, the connection
between global security and migration highlights the need for joint efforts by countries and
international organizations to address the complex challenges posed by these phenomena.
