Why is everyone crazy about immigration?
from The East Angle · host The East Angle
For this episode, we invited our UEA colleague Dr Juvaria Jafri to discuss the hot topic of our times - immigration. Why has immigration become such a controversial issue? Why do all the so-called First World countries worry about the growing number of migrants despite the fact that these very countries depend on immigration for maintaining their population and employment levels?The conversation became emotional - partly because Juvaria and Sherzod are immigrants themselves and have navigated the system. But this discussion at the intersection of personal experience and academic research uncovered so many immigration-related issues that determine the post-truth world we live in.
