The title of this article is inspired by a question raised by Herman Melville in the face of the first American "immigration crisis" occasioned by the Irish potato famine of the 1840s. On this basis, this article discusses arguments on behalf of "open borders." Although under present world circumstances this is not realistic, this stance remains vital for a normative discussion of immigration policies.
