    Staatsgrenzen. Eine liberal-egalitäre Perspektive
    in Deutsche Zeitschrift für Philosophie , 54. Jahrgang, Heft 4, 2006 ,  2006 ,  549-575
    A common language and participation in a common national culture are essential for generating solidarity in modern democratic states. Therefore forms of nation-building that show respect for minority rights are permissible from a liberal egalitarian point of view. Differences in nationality provide a valid basis for determining the location and function of territorial boundaries. As long as there is no gross economic inequality between nations, states should be able to regulate the admission and naturalization of aliens. But liberal egalitarians cannot accept any system of boundaries which condemns some people to poverty while allowing others a life of privilege.
