The author delves into the complex dynamics of immigration, offering an insightful analysis of its causes, consequences, and the intricate interplay between migrants and their chosen destinations. This comprehensive study examines the dual perspective of sending and receiving countries, shedding light on the economic motivations driving individuals to migrate, such as the quest for better job opportunities, escaping adverse conditions, and seeking higher education. The article meticulously explores the economic benefits and challenges posed by immigration, highlighting how remittances significantly support economies of sending countries but also how the phenomenon of brain drain can deplete their skilled labor force. Conversely, for receiving countries, while immigrants contribute to filling labor shortages and enhancing economic growth, they also present fiscal challenges and integration issues. The research emphasizes the importance of understanding the multifaceted nature of immigration's economic impacts, advocating for policies that harness its benefits while mitigating its downsides. Feng's work ultimately argues that, despite the challenges, the economic implications of immigration are nuanced, with potential positive outcomes outweighing the negatives, thereby supporting the continued openness towards immigration globally.
