- Summary
- The publication challenges conventional views on the need to control and restrict migration flows, and brings a fresh perspective to contemporary debates on migration. This book explores analytical issues raised by ‘open borders' such as ethics, human rights, economic development, politics, social cohesion and welfare and how free movement is addressed and governed in Europe, Africa, the Americas and Asia. By introducing and discussing the possibility of a right to mobility, it calls for an opening, not only of national borders, but also of the eyes and minds of all those interested in the future of international migration in a globalising world.
