Resident Foreigners: A Philosophy of Migration Di Cesare Donatella
From the shores of Europe to the Mexican-US border, mass migration is one of the most pressing issues we face today. She develops an original philosophy of migration that places the migrants themselves, rather than states and their borders, at the centre. Yet at the same time, calls to defend national sovereignty are becoming ever more vitriolic, with those fleeing war, persecution, and famine vilified as a threat to our security as well as our social and economic order.In this book, written amidst the dark resurgence of appeals to defend 'blood and soil', Donatella Di Cesare challenges the idea of the exclusionary state, arguing that migration is a fundamental human right.
This means recognising Through an analysis of three historic cities, Athens, Rome and Jerusalem, Di Cesare shows how we should conceive of migrants not as an other but rather as resident foreigners.
