Economic migration is on the rise. It generates forms of temporary migration which differ from
both traditional settler migration and the status and needs of refugees. How should liberal
democratic societies respond to those new demands on immigration? In this book Christine
Chwaszcza develops an innovative transnational normative framework that integrates debates on
citizenship democracy and post-national justice in order to address questions concerning
access to host societies democratic inclusion and family migration. She proposes a liberal
democratic approach that steers a middle course between cosmopolitanism and national closure.
The book will appeal to readers from the fields of political and legal philosophy and social
and political theory.
