The Right to the World

The global number of refugees, asylum seekers, and those displaced within their countries are at record levels in the post"World War II era. Meanwhile, efforts by relatively wealthy and powerful nation"states to exclude unwanted migrants through enhanced territorial control have reached unprecedented heights, producing great harm"“most notably premature death"“for many. The factors driving out"migration from homelands made unviable, coupled with multiple forms of violence experienced by migrants, demonstrate the need for an expansion of rights"“conceived of as both entitlements and sites of struggle. So, herein, I assert the need for "the right to the world""“specifically a right to mobility and a just share of the Earth's resources"“to help realize the promise of a dignified life for all. In making the case for such, the article offers a critical analysis of the contemporary human rights regime and of the "right to the city".
