Review of 'Open Borders' on 'LibraryThing'
4 stars
I very much appreciate this book for two reasons: that it starts with the fundamental moral case that no opponent of open borders can answer, and that it answers many of the common objections with much more patience than I can muster.[return][return]But it does also have its flaws. I found the discussion of poor countries frustratingly defeatist, some of the arguments with academics who disagree get a little personal / fixated, and as an immigrant myself some of the discussion of the economics of immigration felt a little... dehumanising.[return][return]Still, I am very glad this book exists, and do expect to recommend it to people who I would hope to convince.
