Episode notes
In this final miniseries for Season 2, "Migration and Mobility Rights", we reflect on the arbitrary nature of national borders, in light of humanity's much more fluid histories of movement. Over this series, we've looked at deep time and more recent histories of migration, the excessive role of technology in enforcing current borders, and the biggest moral crises that borders impede our ability to address. But does a person really need a dire, life-threatening reason to want to leave? To start over somewhere new? Or are there also more nebulous notions of seeking a better life that merit mobility rights, too?Keywords
