Table of Content:
1: Exploding Migration's Ten Most Misleading Myths
2: Like Covid - 9, Migrant is a Global Earthquake
3: More Migrants, please! The Economic Case
4: Making True Europeans of the Migrant Millions
5: From Covid -19 to Ageing: Migration’s Push and Pull Factors
6: Only help for Africa Can steam Migrant Surges
7: Jihadis, Gangsters and Nobel Laureates
8: More Migrants Jobs, or fewer, in post Covid-19 Labour Markets?
9: Europe’s Common Migration Policy is a Mirage
10: Design for a Realistic 2020-50 Immigration Strategy
This book explains migration is one of the fundamental driving forces of change in the modern world. As regions such as the Middle East continue to experience instability, climate change is driving migration from Africa and Central Asia - these 'push factors' lead to increased migration throughout Europe. Yet despite being one of the fundamental issues of the modern age, the impact of migration on Western developed economies is dangerously misunderstood. Here, economics and migration expert Giles Merritt seeks to explode the ten most common myths about European migration. He shows how the west's aging population needs migrants and demonstrates in clear and accessible writing how governments must adapt to increase migration to solve the challenges of the modern world. The result is a clear-eyed assessment of the issues, and a way forward for the west which preserves our political democracies by rejecting the politics of the right.
