Synopsis:
Throughout human history, the ability to journey across vast distances and adapt to new environments has been essential to our survival. Yet today, this deep migratory impulse faces unprecedented challenges. Former World Bank VP and adviser to Nelson Mandela, Ian Goldin —Oxford Professor of Globalisation & Development—argues that by erecting ever-stronger walls and barriers, governments not only harm the lives of migrants but also jeopardise our societies’ well-being. The author of Rescue returns with a compelling vision, grounded in history and the latest data, for a more humane future that embraces the benefits migration can offer.
