SPECIAL EVENT Borderless Economics: Migration and the Global Economy

Immigration is often called a drain on the US economy and in a presidential election year immigration will be debated intensely.

Join The Economist Business Editor Robert Guest for an examination of the effects that international migration has on the global economy and why keeping the US borders open can help the US retain power despite the current economic climate.

This small group discussion will provide an opportunity to talk in-depth on global security, one of our main topics for exploration at our annual conference scheduled for March 30-31, WorldAffairs 2012: Navigating in a Shifting Global Landscape.
