Decolonized global justice and the rights to mobility

Ariadna Estévez

pp. 153-173

This chapter is dedicated to the presentation of a normative proposal that identifies the ethical and legal responsibilities of the countries of North America and Europe concerning the rights to mobility. This proposal is designed not only to establish responsibilities but also to suggest a set of possible mobility rights that could be considered when designing immigration policy—especially concerning the securitization of cooperation for development and of borders, the use of temporary detention centers as part of the toughening of asylum policy, the criminalization of migration, and the marginalization resulting from discrimination against migrants—that would help to prevent or to reduce the social and economic conditions that generate potentially global conflicts, effectively representing a decolonized global justice.
