When are borders justified?

Borders are justified when they allow us to fulfill those duties; that border-control rights spring from internationally-agreed conventions--not from internal legitimacy; that borders should be governed cooperatively by the neighboring states and the states system; and that border redrawing should be done with environmental conservation in mind.

Who has a right to control them?

Border-control rights spring from internationally-agreed conventions.

Where should they be drawn?

Borders should be drawn with environmental conservation in mind and should be governed cooperatively by neighboring states and the states system.
