"Nothing polishes [people] more than #travel, so it is not wise to forbid Subjects to travel to foreign countries on the pretext that such journeys take too much money out of the country. However polished a country may be, it's impossible to have all Sciences, Arts, Trades

"The Sovereign must oblige his people, even in spite of themselves, to give #strangers a warm welcome, to show #hospitality to travellers, and to be affable, honest and polite to everyone."

When I saw The Lives of Others, I thought for the first time that look, some of the Securitate people could have been as kind as anyone else.

Very interesting book - or, at least, Introduction - on the #migration of #philosophers in the 1930-1940s to the USA.
They founded or influenced various schools from logical positivism to phenomenology and Frankfurt school

On #immigration, true #cosmopolitans should argue that states violating people’s right to #free movement should either be sentenced, or owe compensations to the people harmed, or that States deserve #amnesty
Why has nobody ever considered these positions?

Hiring people to hunt migrants for $1000 each

Not a big deal? Now, that we have a video... 😱

Today, #Rawls in the #philosophy Baccalaureate exam in France, with a passage on the value of political freedom, written before social media.
IMO, Subject 2 suggests an objection to Rawls' view (and Mill's).

Vous me croiriez si je vous disais que c'est notamment à l'occasion de troubles intestinaux survenus en Angleterre que W. E. B. Du Bois s'est converti au socialisme ? Vous ne me croiriez pas. Pourtant, c'est bien ce qu'il écrit :
