104. It is not enough to define ‘democracy’ by words alone: it must be defined by its methods. And it is certainly one of the methods of democracy to accept, as final, the decision of the majority on the various issues that arise. But this is not the whole mathod of democracy. Democracy is being confused with majority rule as a result of concentrating on what is only a part of these methods What we call the coming of democracy has been the progressive extension to every person of the right to choose a representative in parliament The very name of parliament from the old French parie-le-ment or ‘speak the mind’- affords the best clue to its nature. Parliamentary government means legislation by the whole House, and the method ‘parliament is the method of debate and dialogue. Spokesmen of the minority, or minorities, participate in this dialogue just as freely as spokesmen of the majority. The vote comes at the end; but what comes at the end is not necessarily what lies at the heart of the system. The debate is more important than the decision. For, it is the debate that makes it possible for opinions to be formulated and exchanged. The debate enables representatives of different points of view to persuade one another of the merits of their case. In this process, the minority participates on equal terms.

110. Transnational flows of goods and capital have driven globalization during recent years.  These flows have been made possible by the gradual lowering of barriers to trade and investment across national borders, thus allowing for the expansion of the global economy.  However, states have often firmly resisted applying similar deregulatory policies to the international movement of people.As noted by the World Bank in its report, “Globalization, Growth, and Poverty,” while countries have sought to promote integrated markets through liberalization of trade and investment, they have largely opposed liberalizing migration policies. Many countries maintain extensive legal barriers to prevent foreigners seeking work or residency from entering their national borders.
     Despite the reluctance of governments to liberalize immigration policy, however, the number of people living outside their countries of origin has risen from 120 million in 1990 to an estimated 215 million in 2012 (The World Bank, 2012), which is approximately 3.05 percent of the world population. A variety of reasons lie behind migration. People may migrate in order to improve their economic situation, or to escape civil strife, persecution, and environmental disasters. Traditionally, the reasons encouraging an individual to migrate were categorized as “Push” or “Pull” factors. Globalization has introduced a third set of motivations called ‘network’ factors, which include free flow of information, improved global communication and faster and lower cost transportation While network factors are not a direct cause of migration, they do facilitate it.
