Résumé

Even though global justice does not require open borders in principle, it imposes significant constraints on how states can exercise their right to exclude in practice. First, rich states have the primary obligation to assist the poor in their home countries, and only a secondary obligation to host those who cannot be assisted where they live. Second, the employment of coercion must be proportional to the objective pursued, such that only in situations of imminent, direct, and serious risk are immigration restrictions justified. Third, whenever it is necessary to limit access, this limitation should be partial and temporary. States must procure alternative transit routes and restore freedom of movement as soon as possible.
