The example that aligns most closely with the analysis of the Great Atlantic Migration, where industrial developments and failures at home prompted migration, is:
migration from developing countries to the industrialized West since the 1960s.
This is because, similar to the 1800s migration to the United States, many individuals from developing nations have sought better economic opportunities, jobs, and living standards in industrialized countries, often due to economic instability, lack of opportunities, or poor industrial infrastructure in their home countries.
While the other examples provided, such as the displacement due to conflict (the partition of India, the Syrian Civil War, or natural disasters like Cyclone Idai), involve significant migration, they are primarily driven by factors such as conflict and disaster rather than industrial development or economic failure.
