Opis

This book explores how individuals should respond to the injustice of immigration restrictions. Hidalgo focuses on unauthorized migrants and draws on empirical evidence from the social sciences to argue that conventional wisdom about the individual ethics of immigration is wrong.

Recenzje

"The book is persuasive and beautifully written, bringing forth a realistic and optimistic account of how humans can reorganize themselves to better govern in the emerging epoch. It is agenda setting, providing new ideas for progress on a variety of fronts— from the environmental, to the social, to the political—and giving us new ways to think about environmental governance in uncertain, unstable circumstances. Overall it stands as a novel and robust treatment of the Anthropocene and the core issues of global governance. Perhaps most importantly, the book offers hope that human reason and communication with one another and with the Earth system can rise to the challenges of theAnthropocene." - Jen Iris Allan, Ethics and International Affairs
