(Noahpinion)Liberalism needs a new philosophy of immigration

Summary
The article argues that immigration, more than economic frustration alone, is a major driver of the rise of far-right parties such as Germany’s AfD. Similar political pressures have pushed governments across Europe, Canada, Japan, and the United States toward tougher immigration and asylum policies.

The author warns that temporary crackdowns will not restore public trust if voters believe governments will later return to permissive policies. Instead, liberals need a sustainable immigration policy based on three principles: migration is not an unlimited human right; immigration laws and borders are legitimate and must be enforced humanely; and immigration should primarily benefit the people of the receiving country.

At the same time, the author remains broadly pro-immigration, especially in the United States, emphasizing the economic and cultural benefits of skilled migrants, entrepreneurs, workers, and taxpayers. The proposed alternative is therefore neither open borders nor anti-immigration nationalism, but a selective, enforceable, and democratically sustainable immigration system that can maintain public support and prevent further growth of the far right.
