The Ethics and Politics of Immigration provides an overview of the central topics in the ethics of immigration with contributions from scholars who have shaped the terms of debate and who are moving the discussion forward in exciting directions. This book is unique in providing an overview of how the field has developed over the last twenty years in political philosophy and political theory. The essays in this book cover issues to do with open borders, admissions policies and the regulation of labor migration. The book also includes coverage of matters concerning integration, inclusion and states' obligations to immigrant groups. It goes on to explore human trafficking and smuggling, immigration enforcement and its effects. Throughout, the authors consider how these issues are understood by law enforcement and policy makers. The book concludes with three topics that promise to move the field in new directions: philosophical objections to states giving preference to skilled laborers; issues to do with the philosophy of race; and methodological nationalism in the social sciences.
