Places are also influenced by global and international forces which affect them in both positive and negative ways. ### Fertility and mortality ![Fertility and mortality](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-09/2d31ffdf-b0d5-4c2f-b11c-5ccf27f9e873/children-602967_1920.jpg) - Population growth is driven by high fertility rates. - Young immigrant populations have higher fertility than the population in general and youthful populations also have low mortality rates. - Changes to fertility and mortality rates at a national scale influence the provision of services e.g. maternal services, nurseries and schools. - E.g. in towns such as Peterborough (fertility) and care homes in towns such as Budleigh Salterton (mortality). ### Globalisation ![Globalisation](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-09/4ed70f67-0515-4981-a3e0-7d31732179fe/mcdonalds-madonalds-fast-food-.jpg) - Globalisation allows key characteristics/products of a place to become known to other parts of the world. - E.g. EU products like Champagne, Parma ham and Melton Mowbray pies - International forces have brought changes to some parts of London. - E.g. financial institutions in the Canary Wharf area and Russian oligarchs in Kensington. - The growth of a global western culture sometimes referred to as ‘MacDonaldisation’ is seen by many to be an erosion of distinctive national and regional cultures. ## Test yourself on Government & Change - What is the name for the people that were encouraged to migrate to the UK after World War 2? - The Windrush Generation Controversy - What is population growth driven by? - Which of these are examples of how globalisation has affected the UK?
