The 21st Century Gold Rush: How the Refugee Crisis Is Changing the World Economy
Malia Politzer and Emily Kassie
A vast tide of humanity is on the move. Never before in history have so many people felt compelled to escape war, persecution and economic desperation. The refugee crisis grows by the day, engulfing continents, fueling the rise of nativism and empowering demagogues. And as grantees Malia Politzer and Emily Kassie report, it has also made a lot of people very rich. In their masterful multi-media feature for Huffington Post’s “Highline,” Malia and Emily tell the stories “of the CEOs, criminal masterminds, pencil-pushers and low-flying vultures who have figured out how to profit from global instability, also known as human suffering.”
