I am grateful to Matthias Hoesch for his impressive engagement with some of my recent work on refugee protection (the essay on which he focuses is the third of four pieces that respond, at least in part, to Miller’s evolving arguments).1 The essay on which Hoesch focuses has three parts. In the first, I offer an account of the international refugee regime that draws attention to two issues: first, the priority of the duty of refugee protection over the fair distribution of refugee protection that is expressed in the principle of non-refoulement and, second, the collective action problem set up by the absence of practices of fair distribution. In the second, I address and reject Miller’s argument concerning fair shares and defend the priority of refugee protection while arguing that we have reason to ensure as far as practicable that distributions are fair. In the third part, I address the problems that attend developing an account of fair distribution of refugee protection and how this may be addressed. Hoesch’s comments are primarily directed at the second part of this paper. In this response I will not take up every point that Hoesch advances but focus on what I take to be the key issue between us.
