Migration and Refugee Law: Principles and Practice in Australia 2nd Edition provides an overview of the legal principles governing the entry of people into Australia. It encompasses legislative amendments and significant judicial decisions to 2007, and analyses policy and moral considerations underpinning this area of law.
Migration and refugee law and policy is fundamentally concerned with the choices that we as a nation make regarding the people that we allow into our community and to share our resources. Migration and Refugee Law: Principles and Practice in Australia 2nd Edition provides an overview of the legal principles governing the entry of people into Australia. The 2nd edition encompasses legislative amendments and significant judicial decisions to 2007. As well as dealing with migration and refugee law today, the book analyses the policy and moral considerations underpinning this area of law. This is especially so in relation to refugee law, which is one of the most divisive social issues of our time. The book suggests proposals for change and how this area of law can be made more coherent and principled. This book is written for all people who have an interest in migration and refugee law.

John Vrachnas is a migration and refugee lawyer. Kim Boyd is a lecturer at Deakin University and practising lawyer. Mirko Bagaric is Professor of Law at Deakin University and a practising lawyer. Penny Dimopoulos is completing a PhD in refugee law at La Trobe University.
