Description
How do negative portrayals of migrants and refugees impact social cohesion within a society?  What is "crimmigration," and what are the issues with using criminal law frameworks in immigration contexts? Do political incentives shape the discourse on migration and distract from other security threats?   In this episode, Alan Gamlen, Kate Ogg, and Dorota Gozdecka join Danielle Ireland-Piper to discuss "crimmigation”, why migration is a politically charged issue, and discuss High Court cases that have influenced Australia’s approach to migration and refugee laws. Professor Alan Gamlen is the Director of the ANU Migration Hub and Professor in the ANU School of Regulation and Global Governance.   Professor Kate Ogg is a Professor and the Associate Dean of Higher Degree Research at the ANU College of Law.  Professor Dorota Gozdecka is a Professor of Law at the University of Helsinki in Finland.    Dr Danielle Ireland-Piper is Academic Director and Associate Professor at the ANU National Security College.  TRANSCRIPT Show notes   Listener surveyNSC academic programs: find out more   Kate Ogg's bookDorota Gozdecka's bookAlan Gamlen in The GuardianMark J.
