Funded Activity Summary

Conditional citizenship? Revocation's implications for Australians. This project aims to study the implications of the proposed citizenship changes in Australia. Spurred by a potential terrorist threat from citizens, the government has proposed expanded powers to strip a person of their Australian citizenship. Proposed as an instrument of counter-terrorism policy, the expansion of powers over citizenship also has significant implications for fundamental principles of Australian law and for the very nature of Australian citizenship, which is a key legal link between individual and state. The project plans to draw on the experience of countries comparable with Australia and relevant theory. It aims to provide guidelines for policy makers and to benefit debate on the legal constitution and nature of the Australian community.
