International migration in the Arab region since the Second World War has been essentially a product of economic forces though exceptions to this assertion are significant. For example the Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca the Haj now involves an international movement of over a million people and forced migrations following the Middle Eastern wars have included some important international redistributions of people. Nevertheless migration for employment in the Middle East involving over two million people is one of the most challenging issues springing from the modern economic order in the Middle East. The direction volume and pattern of international labour migration have been determined by the uneven distribution of oil wealth in the Middle East and the uses to which it has been put. The exploitation of oil resources and the investment of royalties in the development of the economies of the oil-rich states have led to wide disparities of economic development and per capita income between the Arab states. This essentially is the factor which has determined the fundamentals of international migration in the Middle East. (excerpt)
