What do migrants owe to their home communities? With Guillaume Bogiaris

Guillaume Bogiaris on the relevance of cultural identity formation in migration debates

For today’s chat, I spoke with Guillaume about his work on the migration debate. Guillaume takes a fascinating angle: instead of focusing on common issues like open borders or building walls, his work focuses on the role one’s home community plays in one’s identity formation, and what obligations that generates upon leaving said community. Guillaume outlines his argument and we discuss where it sits in relation to contemporary migration debates.

The article we discuss is here.

Guillaume Bogiaris is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of West Alabama. He has recently authored the book Machiavelli’s Platonic Problems.

Guillaume’s research and other media appearances can be found here.
