AP Human Geography
Unit 1 – Thinking Geographically
Topic 1.6
How does a global scale of analysis differ from a local scale when examining human migration patterns?
A global scale analyses individual experiences, while a local one looks at national statistics.
Both scales analyze the same aspects but come up with different conclusions.
A global scale only considers economic factors, whereas a local one includes social factors too.
A global scale focuses on larger trends and movements, while a local scale concentrates on specific community experiences.
