I love this thinker and writer. I could listen to him for hours. But, I have to argue that the reason countries like Canada, or Australia can keep a cap on immigration is because they are not responsible for blowing up certain regions in the world. I can't imagine my beautiful new Afghan family (the Dad worked for Americans, then had to flee for his life) not being able to immigrate here because we'd reached our quota. I'm going to buy your book, Malcolm, and hope that when I'm long gone, and my decedents have to sort through my library, my grandsons will pick this or The Tipping Point, and read.
So we're just going to ignore Malcolm Gladwell criticizing work from home policies despite having worked remotely for decades?
Congratulations!!What a delightful conversation with two wonderful brilliant authors 🤩
Finished book today (audio with some extras). Enjoyed it. Thanks.
Love Gladwell!! Thanks for the interview.
Isn't Canada what the so-called American Revolutionaries allowed to remain of their British Aristocratic Legacy and French Quebec of France's Aristocrat Legacy ?
As a kid growing up on the southern shores of Lake Erie, I never really understood why the other side of the Lake was called another Country.
Open a wikipedia page, and put in "New France", to see a map of how much of north America was originally occupied by French. You'll be surprised how much and why no mention in our average school's texts.
British were far more ruthless than France, so the US booted their British overlords for the newly established local overlords. I can't speak for Canada, but some significant differences of their colonizing
- France told their colonists to live with and marry the native locals
- England sent governors and gave them large land grants, aka Land Lords, killing off native from the start. Currently lower case landlords, to tone down the class warfare visibility. Much of New England and east coast is still named after them. [Land Lord]borough, [Land Lord]ingham, etc.
US never recovered from the Land Lord concept in its DNA - hence "housing shortage". Bizarre US (and West/Westernized) requires payment (rent/purchase/property taxes) to have your feet on the ground. A wholly unnatural state of affairs, because of arrival as colonizing.
@@buzoff4642 an addendum from Australia.
When the Great South Land' (Terra Australis) was on the point of being 'discovered' by Europeans on the east coast of what is now known as Australia, the British were worried that the French or Dutch would beat them. The west coast had already been 'discovered' by a number of vessels from the Dutch East Indies, now Indonesia. One of these captained by Abel Tasman sailed further to the south around what is now Tasmania, the smallest Australian state.
Captain James Cook and his vessels landed on Terra Australis at whst is now Cape York in the north on the eastern side and claimed the land from there to the south of Van Diemens Land (now Tasmania) for Britain, ahead of interested French explorers.
When colonised later by the British the results were devastating for the First Nations of this land, with the First Nations of Tasmania being systematically and ruthlessly eliminated in various ways. Fortunately not completely.
Wonderful interview! ❤
The phrase "tipping point" had been used in physics long before 1950. But Morton Grodzins was first to use it in a sociological setting.
Standing on the shoulders of meritocracy is pseudo aristocracy supporting a privileged upbringing and acceptable social circumstance inclusively
A person's academic acumen far too often has little to nothing to do with their academic being meritorious. My Asian coworkers move their households near schools rumored to be easy As, and send their kids to tutors as early as 4 or 5. Still, Dad drives to college to continue their tutoring, since Jr's nerve-racked when first flying solo without training wheels. There are many legacy admissions that are present solely due to their legacy admission, not academic acumen.
I'm not saying everyone who went to Harvard, Brown, etc. are fraudulent idiots. The game is the degree branding, on the resume, and ego of both students and parents.
It's not pseudo aristocracy, it's genuine aristocracy.
The population density in Canada is 4 per Km2 (11 people per mi2). United States is 38 per Km2 (98 people per mi2). So yea, Canada is a still a big empty country. However if we compare that to the Netherlands that has 541 per Km2 (1,400 people per mi2), all of North America is relatively empty compared to main land Europe.
However, since people are generally concentrated in cities and urban areas, it makes sense to compare the population densities of larger cities. In this comparison, New York City has the highest population density, followed by Toronto, and then Amsterdam.
Highest Population Density: New York City (10,728 people/km²)
Medium Population Density: Toronto (4,835 people/km²)
Lowest Population Density: Amsterdam (3,980 people/km²)
@@CharliWrites If you're ever in the Netherlands you find it's hard to see where once city ends and an other begins though. There are almost no undeveloped dry land at all to be found. It's allot like L.A today where the valley and all the surrounding towns has melted together.
@@dribrom An unbelievable dearth of trees, also. Just heard in a documentary, humans' heads now smaller, they suspect due to having to think less, when living in the close proximity of cities.
Which is also why England swept their streets of orphan and indigent, sending them to the colonies as indentured. They could only jail so many for "poaching" on the vast properties of the Land Lords.
First...I usually read, but this time i listened to The tipping Point on audiobook
I am an immigrant myself, but I respect the places and people where I immigrated. They have the right to decide who they want to have in their country. Their country is their house and their destiny is tied to it. Would anyone like to be forced to admit in their house someone who they do not want? Or allow others to make the rules in their house that they worked hard to build? All should be a dialog and nobody should force anybody to do anything. And that suggestion that descendants of Harvard graduates should be penalized simply because their parents graduated from there is ridiculous.
The tipping point to get Canada geese to leave is to put a certain number of swans in the lake. I wonder what Gladwell would think about Hawaii which is so multiracial it seems like almost the norm to marry outside your ethnic group.
Here in the US, my snarky Mr says we have Canadian-American geese.
I don't know where Gladwell was talking about with respect to demographic rationing of neighborhoods, but it sounds wholly unnatural. But I'm looking forward to hearing how Boston's, San Francisco's and NYC's Chinatown feels about that. And Atlanta. New England - hey, all you Canadian-American, get out to make way for the Gladwell ratio.
I find when a human explains humans, contextually, it becomes redundant. It offers insight, without conclusion, thus, just one's opinion.
I'm interested in investing, but I'm not sure where to start from. Do you have any advice or contacts who can help me out?
It is wise that you seek professional guidance when building a strong financial portfolio die to it's complexity
Talking to an expert like Liza Georgia to reshape your portfolio is a very smart move
The very first time we tried, we invested $1000 and after a week, we received $7500. That really helped us a lot to pay up our bills.
After I raised up to 325k trading with her I bought a new House and a car here in the states also paid for my son's surgery. Glory to God.shalom..
My invested account is at $29k from initial start up capital of 7k
really? the guy who refuses to consider race in his book about race? he's a charlatan, why are you giving him a platform?
Because he's a non-white guy with a beef.
A very stretched argument on the contagion theory.
Many of his are, but it is food for thought.
So sad to hear a man who is so thoughtful become unreflectively supportive of racism and racist policy. It’s sad. And shows how invidious this thought process is for people. For instance he wrote a book and chose to not even research area that don’t have bigoted policy and it works. He’s just gone sad and unquestioning. As if he had no power to deepen dialogue.
Gladwell is not dumb so many things he says sound good and some are but the general message of control immigration because dominant culture groups got mad, as if education learning and dialogue weren’t possible, is heartbreaking. Not sure why our intelectuals in this generation are so unable to find any meaningful depth.
The last state to repeal anti-miscegenation laws was Alabama in 2000.
The public in the US isn't called the "dominant culture".
The so-called intellectuals are in what's now called "confirmation bias bubbles", and some of the college professors have been quite angry out it. Shouted down to silence with Racist! Xenophobe!. Free speech, to many, are only for what they want to hear. Watch Friday's Firing Line, it's online. Maryland gov running for Senate, proponent of shut down a vigil for Palestinian on a college campus.
@@kevinjenner9502 Yes, we have 50 states, all moving at their own pace, unless federally mandated.
Alabama was the last state to legalize interracial marriage in 2000. This came more than 30 years after the Supreme Court case “Loving vs Virginia” made anti-miscegenation laws unconstitutional.
He revisits the Tipping Point to sell books and for no other discernible reason. The most overrated writer of our times. A master of inflating trivial phenomena with sententious import, and bamboozling a gullible public into prizing his "discoveries" so highly that he becomes a best-selling author, recycling the same ideas into redundant books about his books. Spoiled wine into new bottles. Good formula. Maybe James Patterson should take a class with him.
Lost all respect for this guy after watching his Monk debate: ruclips.net/video/nvaf7XOOFHc/видео.html
Dude is way overrated.
What a twit he is
😂😂😂😂
