Question

What role do race, ethnicity, and culture play in our immigration and population policies? How can we distinguish between prejudice and selfishness on one hand and valid concerns about limits to growth on the other?

Answer 1

With the rising disputes in culture and race, people nowadays tend to move to places which are friendly and have lesser disputes over race, ethnicity or culture. The more warm and friendly a country will be, the more will be the chances of people to migrate to these places. A country whose policies show discrimination on the basis of race or ethnicity will be a less favourable place for migration.

The rising number of immigrants in a country beyond their support can be a challenge for a country. However, under such circumstances, the country should not take pride and become selfish. Instead, they should take possible measures so that immigration can be controlled.
