Asylum and Extraction in the Republic of Nauru: The unbearable lightness of processing being.
$17.29
Available in stock
- Asylum and Extraction in the Republic of Nauru examines the Australian government's policy of exiling asylum seekers to the tiny Pacific island nation of Nauru.
- The book draws on extensive fieldwork and interviews with asylum seekers, government officials, and aid workers to provide a detailed account of the conditions in Nauru's detention centers.
- It explores the physical and psychological toll that prolonged detention has on asylum seekers, as well as the broader implications of Australia's offshore processing policy.
- The book argues that Australia's policy of exiling asylum seekers to Nauru is a form of "extraction," in which the Australian government seeks to extract value from asylum seekers by exploiting their vulnerability.
- It also examines the role of the Nauruan government in the offshore processing regime, and the ways in which Nauru has benefited from the influx of Australian aid money.
- The book concludes by calling for an end to Australia's offshore processing policy and for a more humane approach to asylum seekers.
- It is essential reading for anyone interested in the global refugee crisis, the politics of asylum, or the human rights implications of Australia's immigration policies.
- The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for a wide range of readers.
