Prof Alan Gamlen - The Politics of Immigration, National Identity, and Demographic Transformation

My guest today is Alan Gamlen who among other things a Professor in the School of Regulation and Global Governance at Australian National University and Founding Director of the ANU Migration Hub. Today we discuss: - How he became interested in the topic of immigration and why he thinks immigration has become such a hot button topic in recent times - How the universalist left and the free market right have similar views on immigration and the nation state - Why we need immigration at all and whether he thinks the UK deserves the criticism it has received - How he thinks this will all play out politically in the years ahead https://researchportalplus.anu.edu.au/en/persons/alan-gamlen/
