The Global Politics of Forced Migration

Mehr zum Buch

The book critically examines the socio-political issues arising from stringent deterrence policies in Western nations regarding refugee crises, with a particular focus on Australia's approach. It highlights how such isolated and exclusionary measures fail to provide essential protection and human rights for asylum seekers, while also neglecting the underlying structural factors that drive individuals to seek refuge. Through this analysis, it challenges the effectiveness of current policies and advocates for a more humane and comprehensive response to refugee needs.
