Philosophers & Immigration Control.

The article "Philosophers & Immigration Control" by Edward Hall critiques mainstream philosophical work on migration for lacking discussion on real-world practices of immigration control. It highlights the cruelty faced by unauthorized migrants in rich democracies in the Global North, both in attempting to reach their desired states and upon arrival. The text emphasizes the need for theoretical defenders of restrictive immigration controls to consider the practicalities and ethical implications of imposing such controls, rather than engaging in theoretical debates that do not reflect the reality of existing immigration control measures.
