Philip Pilkington joins editor R. R. Reno to talk about his article “Generation Against Generation,” from the December print edition. They discuss the causes of demographic decline in the developed world, the role immigration plays in industrial policy, and the looming generational strife that will emerge if policymakers fail to promote a natalist agenda.
