Book Talk- Migration and Integration: The Case for Liberalism with Borders

12:00PM - 01:00PM

About the author: 

Tom Farer is a Professor at the University of Denver, a position he assumed after serving for fourteen years (1996-2010) as Dean of the Josef Korbel School of International Studies. He previously served as President of the University of New Mexico, of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, and of the Association of Professional School of International Studies. 


Praise for Migration and Integration: 

"The moderate center in American and European politics is bleeding votes to the right and the left because it has failed to come up with realistic policies on migration. Tom Farer, a distinguished human rights defender and international lawyer, addresses this challenge head-on with a witty, erudite and passionate defense of a ‘liberalism with borders’—a migration policy that reconciles human rights and national sovereignty in a tough-minded yet compassionate synthesis which deserves to redefine the debate on this key issue in modern politics."
