Before the turn of the century, few states used immigration
detention. Today, nearly every state around the world has adopted
immigration detention policy in some form. States practice
detention as a means to address both the accelerating numbers of
people crossing their borders, and the populations residing in
their states without authorisation. This edited volume examines the
contemporary diffusion of immigration detention policy throughout
the world and the impact of this expansion on the prospects of
protection for people seeking asylum. It includes contributions by
immigration detention experts working in Australasia, the Americas,
Europe, Africa and the Middle East. It is the first to set out a
systematic comparison of immigration detention policy across these
regions and to examine how immigration detention has become a
ubiquitous part of border and immigration control strategies
globally. In so doing, the volume presents a global perspective on
the diversity of immigration detention policies and practices, how
these circumstances developed, and the human impact of states
exchanging individuals' rights to liberty for the collective
assurance of border and immigration control. This text will be of
key interest to scholars, students and practitioners of
immigration, migration, public administration, comparative policy
studies, comparative politics and international political economy.
This book examines the impact and effects of refugee
externalisation policies in two regions: Australia's border control
practices in Southeast Asia and the Pacific and the activities of
the European Union and its member states in North Africa. The book
assesses the underlying motivations, processes, policy frameworks
and human rights violations of refugee externalisation practices.
Case studies illuminate the funding, institutional partnerships,
geopolitical impacts, financial costs and the human price of
refugee externalisation. It provides the first truly comparative
analysis of asylum externalisation and explores maritime
interdiction, extraterritorial process, containment and
third-country interception, and communication campaigns in
Southeast Asia and the Middle East/North Africa. This book will be
of key interest to scholars and students of refugee and asylum
studies, law, politics and the arts, legal practitioners,
non-governmental organisations and policymakers grappling with the
issues of detention, refugee externalisation practices and the
growing need to find safety for the world's most vulnerable.
