Abstract

According to a cosmopolitan interpretation of Rawls’s theory of justice this article proposes a global conception of equality of opportunities and, as part of it, a right to mobility without borders (MWB). The research presented below shows that Rawls’s arguments against the idea of global justice and a right to immigrate articulated both in his domestic theory of justice and his theory of international relations are not convincing and do not speak against a right of MWB.
