This essential and timely study of immigration by economic historian Jeffrey G. Williamson compares two global centuries of mass migration, tracing how falling transport costs, wage gaps, demographic change, and shifting immigration policy reshaped labor markets, immigrant skills, and source countries, and revealing why political backlash keeps returning, giving readers the historical evidence to rethink today's debates over globalization, borders, and economic growth.
This monograph examines the political economy of immigration backlash and immigration policy in two global centuries.
