Summary:More than ever before, those in the poorest countries-the bottom billion-feel the lure of greater opportunities beyond their borders. Indeed, the scale of migration driven by international inequality is so massive that it could make nations as we know them obsolete.

Drawing on original research and numerous case studies, Collier explores this volatile issue from three unique perspectives: the migrants them.
