The increase in the number of international migrants is usually regarded as an indicator of global material development. However, recent reforms to consular law represent a significant threat to the Rule of Law and to global justice. Both immigration and transnational mobility in general are subject to norms leading to legal and social stratification. Crossing territorial boundaries, even temporarily and for scientific or cultural purposes, has become a privilege of citizens from rich countries. In fact, consular law and its enforcement often tolerate discrimination based on ethnic, religious, cultural or socio-economic factors. The fact that all kind of low income applicants are rejected by consulates reinforces global inequality.
