Outline of the research paper:

Research Question

An immigrant is a person who comes to live in a foreign country permanently. Many countries have remained true in hosting various immigrants. Some have put various interventions to make their stay in those countries as hospitable as possible. There are indigenous immigrants and recent immigrants. For the indigenous, they relocated to a specific country long ago and are well documented as part of the country’s history. The recent ones came after the country had built and structured their way of life. My research will narrow down to tackle the main differences between how migrants are treated in Europe and North America.

Thesis

Europe and North America treat their immigrants differently. The main point of the whole treatment of immigrants’ paradigm is that- while Europe employs the art of idealism, North America uses realism. So my main research quorum is “how idealism in Europe fairs with the difference posed by realism in North America towards their immigrants.

Main Points and Concepts

• The research will primarily focus on various spectrums consisting of the livelihood of the immigrants in the continents quoted (North America and Europe).
• emphasize the life structures, employment rates, health standards the immigrants are subjected to and compared to the natives
• emphasize the rights the immigrants have in various continents.
