New pub from me today at Ethics & International Affairs (PhilPapers link: philpapers.org/rec/LENDMC + EIA link: www.cambridge.org/core/journal...)
Journal: Ethics & International Affairs, Cambridge University Press Title: Detained Migrant Children, Autonomy, and Positive Duties Author: Tyra Lennie Abstract: Despite a heavy philosophical focus on issues pertaining to immigration, little discussion is taken up that examines the duties we owe to migrant children. This article works to bridge the gap between global justice literature and work on children’s autonomy and well-being. To capture what migrant children experience in the context of immigration and detention, the article examines the conditions on the island country of Nauru, where at least 222 migrant children experienced detention between the years of 2013 and 2019. Using this lived experience as an example, the article argues that we owe children specific positive duties, which are further supported by the Convention on the Rights of the Child. Throughout this article, the aim is to indicate how migrant children occupy a particularly vulnerable and nonautonomous status in the context of detention. Because of this, children are owed especially weighty positive duties that are not discussed in the current global justice literature.

a bonus of becoming a doctor is that people sometimes give you nice flowers

the answer for me is almost always dumb reality tv along with something like colouring, crafting, or puzzling at the same time

seriously wondering how long it will take for me to fully feel like my PhD is over (still in a state of slight disbelief)

on the bright side tho, I just looked and some random man who doesn't even follow me started arguing back and the initial dude deleted ALL of his screenshots and grok prompts about how I am going to have to be a barista now that my degree is wrapped up

it also feels real because my "I defended" post on twitter has men trying to dampen the occasion (by way of asking grok for unemployment stats on philosophy graduates) in the replies

if you want to bully an academic today, ask them how their plan to tackle some back-burner writing projects went this summer

the whole "put on your workout clothes way before you workout to get in the right headspace" is very funny when you are a swimmer because I am responding to emails in my sporty one-piece and shorts
