Immigration and the Economy: How Leading Economists Missed the Mark

Economist Michael Clemens (George Mason) discusses the economics and public policy of immigration, especially at the southern border of the United States.

Intended Audience(s): Public

Three months ago, the number of people crossing the US Southwest border without a visa rose to 10,000 per day, an all-time high. How should government respond to this policy crisis? Prof. Clemens will review economic research that offers a better path—and call on universities to help guide the country toward a future better for everyone. Affiliated at University College, London and with the IZA Institute in Bonn, as well as at the Peterson Institute and the Center for Global Development, Clemens is now professor of economics at George Mason University.

Co-sponsored by the Eclonomics Department and the Political Economy Project.
