Funded Activity Summary

The New Paradigm of International Migration to and from Australia: Dimensions, Causes and Implications. Population movement to and from Australia is undergoing a major transformation but much thinking about immigration in Australia remains based on paradigms of the past. Yet debates such as those on immigration's contribution to national population size and growth, the significance of skilled migration, the response to asylum seekers, undocumented movement and the role of temporary versus settlement migration have increased. This study identifies emerging trends of migration, examines global and domestic drivers of the movement in the context of developing migration theory, explores the economic, social and demographic consequences and draws out the implications for immigration and population policy.
