Research compares anti-immigration voting in Japan and Switzerland
Original: Policy Insight 152: Voting against immigration: Evidence from Japan and the Swiss “10 million initiative”
New analysis from economics research network CEPR examines why voters back anti-immigration measures, drawing on evidence from Japan and Switzerland's '10 million initiative', a proposal to cap the country's population. The piece explores the economic and cultural drivers behind opposition to immigration in two very different democracies, offering comparative insight into a debate shaping politics across the developed world.
Why now: Immigration remains a highly contested political issue, and comparative research on why voters oppose it draws attention.
