The Plot to Change America exposes the myths that help identity politics perpetuate itself. This book reveals what has really happened, explains why it is urgent to change course, and offers a strategy to do so. Though we should not fool ourselves into thinking that it will be easy to eliminate identity politics, we should not overthink it, either. Identity politics relies on the creation of groups and then on giving people incentives to adhere to them. If we eliminate group making and the enticements, we can get rid of identity politics.

Aged eight, Dina Nayeri fled Iran along with her mother and brother and lived in the crumbling shell of an Italian hotel-turned-refugee camp. Eventually, she was granted asylum in America. She settled in Oklahoma, then made her way to Princeton University. In this book, Nayeri weaves together her own vivid story with the stories of other refugees and asylum seekers in recent years, bringing us inside their daily lives and taking us through the different stages of their journeys, from escape to asylum to resettlement.

But this view of immigration's impact is overly simplified, explains George J. Borjas, a Cuban American, Harvard labor economist.

Cuando Helena Maleno llegó a Marruecos en 2002 con su hijo, dos maletas y un proyecto laboral de tres meses no podía imaginar hasta qué punto aquel país y la lucha por los derechos de las poblaciones migrantes que lo atravesaban transformarían su vida para siempre.

Als eine unübersehbare Zahl von Menschen aus dem Nahen Osten und Nordafrika im Herbst 2015 plötzlich unkontrolliert nach Deutschland strömte, stellte sich die Gymnasiallehrerin die Frage "Was ist hier bloß los?".

L'économie est une mythologie qui désenchante le monde : plus que jamais "lugubre", elle pollue le débat public de ses fausses certitudes et empoisonne l'esprit démocratique. Les mythes économiques contemporains ont pour fonction principale de détourner l'attention des citoyens des véritables enjeux dont ils devraient se soucier et débattre. Nos mythologies économiques sont des mystifications politiques.
