Topic: Rights, Religion, Riviera, and Roma
Abstract
The recent conflict between the French government and the EU over Roma motivates a more general examination of the EU's free mobility policies. The article describes three additional situations access to land in desirable locations, access to universities, and access to health care where the EU's policies with respect to mobility can lead to Pareto sub-optimal outcomes. More generally, the article challenges the now widely held presumption, which underlies debates like these over rights, that there exists some set of universal human rights of which free movement is a member. A utilitarian theory of constitutional rights is offered instead.
