Philosophy Is Rotten With Far-Left Politics
Here's the kind of stuff we get on PHILOS-L, the main listserve for conference announcements:
Bristol Workshop on the Ethics Of Resistance to Immigration Controls
This workshop in political theory will look at the ethics of resistance to immigration controls and the rights and duties of migrants and citizens in the face of restrictions on free movement and state policies that criminalize solidarity with those seeking sanctuary. The workshop will discuss resistance to detention, civil disobedience in the face of state controls and deportation, the permissibility of smuggling, and the tension between the law's claims to obedience and conflicting duties including those of justice, humanity, solidarity and rescue.Anybody wanna guess how many speakers are going to argue in favor of enforcing immigration laws and obeying them?
Confirmed speakers:
Udit Bhatia (Oxford), Mollie Gerver (Newcastle), Guy Aitchison (KCL), Patti Lenard (Ottawa), Jenny Alsopp (SOAS), Yasha Maccanico (Bristol).
Lunch is included.
Registration (free) is via
