Conclusion is decolonized global justice viable for preventing conflicts related to the denial of human rights to immigrants?
Ariadna Estévez
pp. 175-179
The argument of this book is that conflicts involving migrants in North America and Europe are the product of the systematic denial of universally recognized human rights resulting from the implementation of certain elements of immigration policy, in particular the securitization of cooperation for development and borders, the use of temporary detention centers as part of the toughening of asylum policy, the criminalization of migration, and the marginalization resulting from discrimination against immigrants. To prove this hypothesis four related arguments were used and these were developed in four chapters, using empirical analysis.
