EMIGRACIÓN Y ÉTICA
by Gabriel Bello Reguera
Description
EMIGRATION AND ETHICS. HUMANIZATION AND DEHUMANIZATION
This book tackles emigration from an ethical standpoint, focusing on illegal emigration, and explores the rift between legal(ized) or normal(ized) humanity and illegal (ized) or irregular(ized) (and thus dehumanized, albeit less so than in other, more extreme cases) humanity. The humanization/dehumanization binary opposition then takes center stage, allowing for an interpretation of the migratory frontier in terms of a morally divided anthropology dominated by an axiological approach that sets too much store by identity: the other side of racism. The book ends by looking to the future of emigration from the intersection of its global impact (with its appalling economic and cultural asymmetries that leave little room for optimism) and its unpredictable future development, which does not entirely rule out any cause for hope.
