Résumé

Why has migration policy been failing year after year ? Why have border restrictions actually produced more migration ? As debates on the subject have reached fever pitch, how can we sort the facts from the fearmongering ? In this groundbreaking and revelatory book, based on over three decades of research, Professor Hein de Haas explodes the myths that politicians, interest groups and media regularly spread about migration.
As de Haas shows, global migration is not at an all-time high ; climate change will not lead to mass migration ; and immigration mainly benefits the wealthy, not workers. Comparing data from Western 'destination countries' (the United Kingdom, United States and in Europe) as well as 'origin countries' in Asia, Africa and Latin America, de Haas equips readers with essential knowledge on migration, based on the best evidence, and drains the vitriol from a debate that has poisoned politics for decades.
Above all, How Migration Really Works offers a paradigm-altering understanding of this perennially important subject.
