Immigration is omnipresent in current political, legal and, more broadly, societal debates. Challenges linked to immigration have given rise to an important body of scientific literature. The key contribution of Dr. Johan Rochel's book is to transcend disciplinary boundaries by linking legal scholarship with political philosophy and providing insight on how to reform the current European regime on economic migration and family reunification.
At a time when the European Commission and its president Jean-Claude Juncker have made the common immigration policy a political priority, this book offers a timely outline of a republican theory of immigration for the EU. It specifies how the EU should reform its immigration policy in order to be more consistent with the values and principles upon which the European project has been developed.
