MOVE: HOW MASS MIGRATION WILL RESHAPE THE WORLD –AND WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU

This is an excellent, well researched book on how people have moved to green pastures continously fir improving their life standards. Some for recognition, some for money and some persecuted. One disturbing representation is on India. It is frstrating to read half baked research on faje narratives about minorities and also about Modis policiesExcept for this minor blemishes, it is a must read for all to understand how in future just borders alonevwill not hold peoplevto be loyal tontheir country of birth which we have seen with our people who are settled abroadGood research across so many countries

Author has shared false information about India, its CAA bill and NRC bill which has not even been drafted. Clearly shows his agenda. Makes the reader wonder whether all the other information in the books is genuine or I it filled with his biases.

A must read for every person

The author is clearly well read and well connected, and shares a lot of interesting insights, anecdotes and data points. Unfortunately he then goes on to string them together in an unsubstantiated, sloppy narrative that will leave you a little bit stupider than you were before you read it.There are important topics covered in this book, and if you want to get smarter about them there are better books.

A brilliant insight into humanities geographic climatic challenges and the barriers and solutions to adaptive sharing of earth’s finite resources .

Parag Khanna has written another super book, inspired by the disruption caused by the COVID pandemic, as well as other disruptions caused by climate change, political chaos, wars, and economics. He focuses on how the rise of digital work is changing how young workers live and work. Parag Khanna has also written about how immigration policies are evolving, and how globalization will look post-COVID. Overall, while provocative at times, this book is oddly hopeful, because of its focus on youth and their future mobility. This is a must read. 5 stars! Congratulations to Parag Khanna on a job well done!

As with any book that tries to predict the future, some things will turn out to be accurate, others no to much. For example, I was always in agreement with Parag about reducing military and using money elsewhere until the recent invasion of Ukraine. Just look at how Germany is reacting with 100 billion allocated for military.With respect to having flexibility to move I suppose war only increases the advantage to be able to pack up and take off and, most obviously, climate change which is principle point of the book. The challenge that is not really addressed in the book is designing a plan and being able to pull it off. If you stay in same country it’s a little easier but if work remotely and Europe looks enticing you a will be faces with language, culture, and visa issues while at same time , not owning a home.I love the idea of feeling free and having options. The book makes you think, a lot, but can’t and won’t map out your plan such as “ move here” or “ do this “ . The author can’t do it because no one knows what it will look like 10, 15, 20 years from now.Summary: I think you should buy it.

Where will you live in 2050? This simple question starts the author off on a story of how the distribution of people around the world is changing, largely driven by climate change and the ever evolving complexity of nations’ demographics. Low birth rates in industrialized nations with a need for workers will pull immigrants from nations facing environmental collapse. A decrease in national identity and people considering themselves part of a global citizenry means movements across the globe become fluid. All very interesting and laid out well.
