Immigration enforcement, open borders, and the Chinese Exclusion Cases
Much of the original philosophical literature on immigration focused on the general question of whether borders should be open. More recently, more specific questions regarding immigration have come to the fore.

One could add quite literally millions of other such sentences. But, when one presses for clarity, it is very difficult to say precisely what a right is. In this article I sketch an analysis of rights. I …
