Migration has always happened, and it is almost always good for the destination country. Migrants go where the jobs are, rather than “stealing” jobs from the locals, and they contribute to economic growth in developed countries where populations would otherwise shrink. So runs the repeated lesson of this dense but illuminating study, whose author’s sympathies are clear: “Globalisation must also mean the globalisation of people.”https://dialogue.earth/content/uploads/2024/04/Dialogue-Earth-logo_Thumbnail.png1200675
