Abstract

One of the reasons for perpetuating global injustice is the asymmetrical allocation of resources and duties. This obstacle is more challenging to overcome due to immigration control and state borders. This dissertation develops an alternative reading to Rawlsian justice theories with the associative responsibilities framework. It argues that the political conception of justice can be adjusted to a concurrent version that applies in the transnational domain and generates a transborder associative responsibility. Then, it posits a duty to admit immigrants to correspond to the transborder associative duty on the grounds of the overriding interest of the individual. It brings supporting justification from international human rights to demonstrate prospective immigrants' interests and the arbitrary allocation of political membership as a contributing factor to global injustice.
