Produktbeschreibung

Advance Praise for Moving Millions "A really wonderful book. With vivid writing that brings policy to life through the people most touched by it, Moving Millions pulls us across the global landscape of one of the least understood phenomena of our time--human migration--and demonstrates why each of us has a stake in what happens to these strangers in our midst. Kaye's done such a fantastic job of capturing the human, as well as the government and commercial, sides of this complicated issue. A superb piece of work." --Judy Woodruff, Senior Correspondent, PBS NewsHour "Global immigration--forced, exploitative, and profitable--is arguably the most explosive social issue of our time. Its economics are murky and its politics are hypocritical. Read this book if you want a well-written, honest guide to how it works and why any solution has to focus on where immigrants come from as well as where they go." --Jeff Faux, founder of the Economic Policy Institute and author of The Global Class War "Jeffrey Kaye does a masterful job in demolishing the myriad myths surrounding immigration and puts a human, sometimes tragic, face on the concurrent global push of poverty and the pull of the promise of a better life." --Marc Cooper, USC Annenberg School
