Zusatztext Migration questions are among the most frequently discussed in contemporary politics. In answering such questions readers would do well to consult Sarah Fine and Lea Ypi's wonderful collection of ground-breaking essays, which includes chapters from some of the most prominent scholars working on the ethics of movement and membership today. The essays also invite reflection on wider topics including the future of democratic citizenship and obligations of social justice in a context of exclusionary migration policies, cultural diversity and the erosion of social cohesion. Authors expose many inconsistencies and injustices in contemporary practices governing migration. This well-edited book helpfully pushes several debates forward and is a most welcome addition to current literature. Informationen zum Autor Sarah Fine is a Lecturer in Philosophy at King's College London. She was previously a Research Fellow at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. She specialises in issues relating to migration and citizenship. Her forthcoming book, Immigration and the Right to Exclude (OUP), sets out to challenge the idea that the state has a moral right to exclude would-be immigrants. Her publications include 'Freedom of Association Is Not the Answer' in Ethics. Lea Ypi is Associate Professor in Political Theory at the London School of Economics and Political Science and Adjunct Associate Professor of Philosophy at the Australian National University. She is the author of Global Justice and Avant-Garde Political Agency (Oxford University Press 2012), The Meaning of Partisanship, (OUP 2016, with Jonathan White) and the co-editor of Kant and Colonialism (Oxford Univrsity Press 2014, with Katrin Flikschuh).
