摘要
最近访问华盛顿特区时,我与一位出租车司机进行了热烈的讨论,他是唐纳德•特朗普(Donald Trump)的狂热支持者。司机并不是那种把特朗普送入白宫的典型白人、中年、小城镇、工人阶级、没有受过大学教育、愤怒的选民。相反,他是一名来自印度的前电视制片人和诗人,于上世纪90年代移民到美国,他坚信特朗普会阻止非法外国人 - œflood进入美国。他对特朗普的有力辩护令人意外,他对特朗普的反移民威胁言论的认同也令人意外。在当代世界,很少有问题像移民一样产生如此多的无知辩论和错误信息(Blinder, 2015;de Haas, 2008;Hellwig and Sinno, 2017;Valentino et al., 2013)。
On a recent visit to Washington DC, I had an animated discussion with a taxi driver who was an avid supporter of Donald Trump. The driver was not the stereotypical white, middle-aged, small-town, working-class, non-collegeeducated, angry voter who put Trump in the White House. Rather, he was a former television producer and poet from India who had immigrated to the US in the 1990s, and was adamant that Trump would stop the “flood of illegal aliens†into the country. His vigorous defence of Trump was a surprise, as was his buy-in to Trump’s anti-immigrant discourse of threat. There are few issues in the contemporary world that generate so much uninformed debate and misinformation as immigration (Blinder, 2015; de Haas, 2008; Hellwig and Sinno, 2017; Valentino et al., 2013).
