Foredges and inside covers have started to sun. Body text and binding are still very good. Australia's policy for dealing with border refugees and boat people is to lock them in detention while claims are processed and legal challenges finalised - some claimants have been locked up for 4 years. The policy is at odds with international practice, is expensive and in the eyes of many, inefficient and inhumane. Why is it persisted with? What are its consequences? What are the alternatives? This book examines all of the issues. Some contributors defend the policies and explain their rationale; more attack them - political, legal, medical, economic and humanitarian debates are canvassed. Published in the early 1990s.
