So, you'll recall in the late-1930s the UK & other countries (including the US) benefitted from a large scale exodus of scientists & other intellectuals... indeed, there's been a lot of recent work done on how these migrants informed & shaped British cultural institutions across the 30s/40s/50s & beyond.
Are we now going to see a similar exodus of US scientists & others, who will then have a similar galvanising effect on their new/host countries scientific & cultural lives?
