The Ethics of Immigration: How Biased is the Field, a new paper in Migration Studies by @Spe07 https://philarchive.org/archive/DUMTEO-5
I have a new paper on the abolition of passport after WWI

L’abolition des passeports : une revendication de gauche ou de droite ?

Le régime international des passeports obligatoires, tel qu’il existe aujourd’hui, est un legs de la Grande Guerre. Après l’Armistice, deux « Conférences des passeports » organisées par la Société des Nations envisagent de l’abolir. Ces conférences rencontrent un écho inégal dans la presse française de l’entre-deux-guerres. Les quotidiens qui publient le plus d’articles sont de droite ou de centre-droit. Mais les journaux analysés semblent davantage intéressés par la suppression des passeports que par les efforts de la SDN en la matière.

What will happen to our expectations ?
Take this NYT reader, 10 years after the WWI: "the civilized countries are waiting for us to abolish the passports, yet 10 years after the armistice we are treated as if the war was still on "
100 years after WWI, who asks for passport abolition?
"Americans and citizens of first world countries in general tend to overestimate the simplicity of the legal #immigration process. ... It is a very restrictive bureaucratic nightmare." https://www.liberalcurrents.com/a-century-of-backsliding-on-immigration/
A Century of Backsliding on Immigration

Those who live in the West have the tendency to view history, and their societies in particular, as getting more progressive with time. It certainly does make sense in many instances. Same-sex relations were criminal in the past, now they are completely legal, with Western countries increasingly allowing gay marriage.
