I know the author. Good guy. Level headed and data driven. I found it to be an interesting read.
He says he's been getting lots of interesting emails since this piece.
Edit: A little more context: this was in response to some other right-leaning piece (if you read the comments on the article you can see references to that).
- emmelaich 7y agoSpecifically, in response to something like this from Alberto Alesina et al https://scholar.harvard.edu/stantcheva/publications/immigration-and-support-redistribution https://scholar.harvard.edu/stantcheva/publications/immigrat... Immigration is great on balance but it doesn't mean there's not legitimate concerns on number, diversity and education level.
- emmelaich 7y agoRegarding Alesina, there is a "Pepes Seminar" > Paris Empirical Political Economy Seminar, a monthly seminar series co-organized by the Department of Economics at Sciences Po and the Paris School of Economics. which is funny or scary or silly depending your state of mind.
