A Global Justice Framework for the Governance of the International Migrations

No. 47 (2013-09-01)
  • Juan Carlos Velasco

Abstract

This paper discusses the convenience of incorporating the discourse of contemporary international migration processes in a larger conceptual framework dominated by the key concept of global justice. In this way, the methodological nationalism that afflicts the most common theoretical and practical approaches on that subject and impedes properly tackling the complexity of such social processes could be overcome. Their governance implies relevant modifications on the institutional and normative level as well as on the level of global economic politics.

Keywords: International migrations, methodological nationalism, global justice, global governance
