这篇文章论证了好客在国际伦理讨论中的重要性，认为虽然雅克·德里达关于这一概念的思想应该是核心，但我们也需要超越它。特别是，德里达对主权决策的临界点的关注，具有加强国际关系对国家作为唯一伦理参与者和空间的关注的效果。相反，这篇文章建议我们将热情好客视为一种带有情感维度的空间关系，并在客人跨过家的门槛后继续下去。因此，好客揭示了伦理、权力和空间之间的结构性关系，这引导我们了解好客创造国际空间的方式，并通过各种策略来管理它们，试图遏制抵触的客人。通过对当代最紧迫的国际伦理空间--难民营--的审视，可以说明这一论点。
This article argues for the importance of hospitality in discussions of international ethics, suggesting that, while Jacques Derrida's thought on the concept ought to be central, we also need to go beyond it. In particular, Derrida's focus on the threshold moment of sovereign decision has the effect of reinforcing International Relations' focus on the state as the only ethical actor and space. In contrast, this article suggests that we think of hospitality as a spatial relation with affective dimensions and a practice that continues once the guest crosses the threshold of the home. Conceived as such, hospitality reveals a constitutive relation between ethics, power and space, which directs us to the way hospitality produces international spaces and manages them through various tactics seeking to contain the resistant guest. This argument is illustrated through an examination of perhaps the most urgent of contemporary international ethical spaces: the refugee camp.
