Reаd the fоllоwing new аrticle аnd answer the questiоns that follow.The Challenge of Diversity                             (1)Migration has altered the character of almost every country in the world. Many nations that once had relatively homogeneous populations have become complex multicultural societies, and maintaining racial and ethnic harmony in those societies has become a considerable challenge. Often, the lack of understanding among people of different backgrounds has resulted in prejudiced attitudes and discriminatory behavior.                             (2)Sociologists generally define prejudice as a set of irrational judgments and bias about a certain group of people based only on their membership in that group. In today’s world, some races, ethnicities, religions, and nationalities have become common targets of prejudice. Discrimination grows out of this prejudice and refers to the unequal treatment of people based on their group.                             (3)Discrimination generally increases in environments where the issues of cultural identity and economic security are at risk. This correlation is clearly evident in the experiences new immigrants.                             (4)With the increasing mobility of the world’s population, more and more people are choosing to live outside the countries where they were born. However, gaining permission to live and work in a destination country can be difficult, and would-be immigrants often face a host of governmental barriers. Such barriers, which usually reflect the attitudes of the native-born population, can discriminate against newcomers.                             (5)Stringent immigration requirements in the Netherlands suggest that the attitudes toward immigrants have changed. For years, Dutch society was known for its promotion of multiculturalism and tolerance of different ethnicities. Yet, with the opening of internal borders in the European Union (EU) at the beginning of the 21st century, it became easier for both EU and non-EU immigrants to move more freely within the EU. This ease of movement has resulted in particular concern in the Netherlands, where many Dutch people worry that a large influx of immigrants from non-EU countries would overwhelm the small country and affect its multicultural harmony. Therefore, many of the Dutch are generally in favor of the government’s current stricter policies, which center on a set of tests that people wishing to immigrate to the Netherlands must take.                             (6)Japan is another country that tightly controls immigration, and its policies have led to a foreign-born population that is less than 2 percent of the total population. Its restrictive regulations are a subject of debate. Critics regard the controls as unwise at a time when Japan’s population is aging and the number of working-age people is declining. They argue that continuing economic growth will depend largely on foreign labor. However, many Japanese are resistant to any loosening of the requirements. Those in favor of tight restrictions believe that cultural identity is more important than any economic problems.                             (7)In other developed countries, times of economic stress may lead some people to want to limit immigration. Their fear is that immigrants may be willing to work for lower wages, and therefore, take jobs away from native-born workers. This allegation is often combined with the charge that immigrants are likely to requirement government assistance and remain dependent on it for a long time. However, numerous studies contradict these concerns. In fact, the research suggests that immigrants actually contribute to economic growth.                             (8)Prejudice and discrimination toward new immigrants are being addressed with laws and policies; however, sanctions cannot change people’s ways of thinking. A more harmonious multicultural world will be possible when there is wide recognition that individuals from different countries are a great asset to a country. They are a valuable source of cultural enrichment, and as workers and consumers, they make an important contribution to the overall economic growth of nations.
