Right-wing anti-immigrant parties are back in the developed world. This is changing how we think about international development. The boys discuss and just barely save themselves from getting into an argument about the future of the welfare state.

(David: I don't like the term 'populist'. For one thing, in the United States populism doesn't have the automatic negative connotation it has in Europe. For another thing, any label used in the media to describe Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders is sure to lack meaning. Anyway. This episode is good.)

The music in this podcast is "Clandestino" (1998) by Manu Chao.
