How did this affect Germans’ exclusionary beliefs & behaviors?

Maybe “More than nickels and dimes,”?
Funnily the “more than nickels and dimes” was the title a coauthor felt was most cringe of anything I’ve ever done.
Lol
And yes, the capitalization and exclamation point are mandatory.
Why Americans (all people?) are SO supportive of anti-immigrant politics is THE question.
But I actually agree with Trump that he won because of immigration (not inflation).
That the public voted for this is most depressing.
I’m obviously glad public opinion is shifting against Trump’s immigration policies. But this piece documents how Trump very explicitly campaigned for mass deportations. The American people voted for this.

dear jeff:
thanks for the kind words. i enjoyed meeting you; i had not known you were connected to john brockman, but i should have guessed!
as luck would have it, i am slated to be in NYC this coming thursday for a dinner and could meet before that, any time between 2 and 5, if that happened to work for you. otherwise, i could surely come back again within the coming weeks.
my lab has a number of foci at present: 1) the evolutionary biology and genetics of social networks and social interaction; 2) the experimental exploration, using online tools, of network structure and function in humans (how does network structure affect phenomena like cooperation, innovation, health, etc.); and 3) randomized controlled trials in the developing world of network 'targeting algorithms' aimed at enhancing spillover effects, so as to facilitate population-level behavior change by identifying and targeting influential people.
let me share three papers with you (one unpublished) that flesh out some of our work (specifically [1] and [2] above):
best, nicholas

Why were the famous professors who got paid never asked to explain this?
I recall ~10 years ago many highly cited American professors were getting paid. Interesting how said scholars have scrubbed it from their CVs.

For years, we’ve thought of welfare services offices as disciplinary. Seim shows there is little case work left as it’s been replaced by “task work” and automation.

This is the BEST book on the administration and delivery of welfare programs I’ve read in years. Totally changed how I think we should think about the delivery of social services.
