This book explores the regional coordination and impact of state
responses to irregular migration in Southeast Asia and the Pacific.
The main argument is that regional and international trends of
securitisation and criminalisation of irregular migration, often
associated with framing the issue in terms of migrant smuggling and
human trafficking, have intensified carceral border regimes and
produced greater precarity for migrants. Bilateral and multilateral
processes of regional coordination at multiple levels of government
are analysed with a focus on the impact on asylum seekers and
migrant workers in major destination and transit countries
including Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, and Australia.
The book will be of interest to a wide academic audience interested
in the interdisciplinary field of Border Studies, as well as
general readers concerned with the treatment of refugees and
migrant workers who cross borders in search of safety, security,
and a better life.
