The Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions Audio Archive Program 765: The Case for Restricted Immigration Garrett Hardin, of the University of California Santa Barbara, argues for restricted immigration on the grounds that it is imperative to achieve population stabilization; and that while accepting a large volume of immigrants may appear to be altruism, it actually is not, for it gives the sending countries no incentive to control their population and depletes the resources of the receiving country. Followed by discussion with Richard Arellano, Harry S. Ashmore, Walter Fogel, Ronald M. Green, David Heer, John Higham, Ezra Mishan, Joseph Schwab, Ivan M. Timonin, Luis Alfonso Velarde, Jr., Richard Wasserstrom, and James W. Wilkie. Illegal Immigration VI. Dec. 9, 1977.
