In an article for The Boston Globe, John Tirman writes about why people are fleeing countries like Libya, Syria, and Mexico. Tirman writes that much of the migration “results from unsustainable livelihoods, the disruption of traditional forms of agriculture, production, and government services that for decades provided adequate — in many cases, barely so — incomes in the developing world.”
