Future Seekers II is the ideal book for the concerned citizen wanting to know if Australia now strikes the right balance between compassion and national interest in our treatment of asylum seekers arriving without visas. Like its predecessor Future Seekers, this book is user friendly with chapter summaries of key points and statistics which put Australia’s concerns and responsibilities in a global context. Written by legal academics able to communicate with a broad public, this book provides a comprehensive, reliable over�view of Australian law and policy. Fr Frank Brennan SJ AO Future Seekers II cuts through the media hysteria to present the facts. Facts that will surprise many readers. Who are the refugees? How many of them are there? What are Australia’s obligations under the relevant international conventions? What has been the effect of the radical new immigration laws introduced since Tampa? What has it cost Australia, both in financial and moral terms? Where do we go now? The authors of the book are legal academics and, as the title implies, this is their second work on the subject. It goes into more depth than the first – providing a detailed history of the ‘irregular migration’ into Australia since the 1970s, and analysis of the legislation and case law governing every aspect of the asylum seeker process – from entry into the country to final appeal before the High Court and beyond. However the text has been made user-friendly with chapter summaries of key points, break-out boxes with heartbreaking personal testimony from the refugees and a clean direct style. The authors, for the most part, avoid moralising and simply state the facts – and this is the strength of the book. The facts are so strong they leap off the page. … Civil Liberty, September 2006
Reseña del editor
This book explores Australia's ambivalent legal and political response to irregular migration, including the unplanned arrival of people variously known as asylum seekers, boat people, illegals, queue jumpera and economic migrants. Part 1 outlines how many people arrive, who they are, where they come from, and why they come. It also compares Australia's experience of irregular migration to that of other countries, in light of the vast global movements of people and increasingly exploitative practices such as people smuggling and people trafficking. The core of the book addresses the complex system of refugee law and policy in Australia. It explains the legal definition of who is a refugee and the administrative and judicial procedures for applying this definition to determine refugee status. It traces the changes to law and policy since 2001 following the infamous Tampa affair, the introduction of the Pacific Strategy, and the extension to West Papuans in 2006 of the policy of interdicting, deflecting, and processing asylum seekers offshore on Nauru and Christmas Island. The final part of this book examines equally controversial laws and policies requiring the mandatory detention of unlawful non-citizens, including the key High Court decisions which confirmed the parliament's power to detain a person indefinitely and in breach of international human rights law. The living conditions in the detention centres and how Australia's laws compare with other countries are also discussed. Future Seekers II builds on a shorter book by two of the authors in 2002. This book responds to the many changes to refugee and migration law between 2002 and 2006 and its deeper coverage of the issues reflects the growing sophistication of public understanding of and concern about refugee issues in Australia.
