International political theory, historical political philosophy and the constitutional underlabourer
Abstrak
This paper illustrates one way in which thinking about the democratic underlabourer model in relation to intra-state politics can be helpful for working up an analogous model for international politics. This move involves both a critical engagement with the initial articulation of the democratic underlabourer model and making explicit some of its background commitments. Drawing on my own work on refugees, it offers an extended example of what I refer to as ‘the constitutional underlabourer model’. In the final section, I considered two potential challenges to this model and show that addressing them involves drawing out potentials of the model that my example had failed to make explicit and hence helps to elaborate a richer understanding of the constitutional underlabourer model and its attractions.
