Funded Activity Summary

Irregular migrants and political belonging in global cities. This project investigates impacts of irregular migration in three cities in the Asia-Pacific region. As Australia's role in security and development in Pacific states increases, there is every possibility that irregular labour migration may flow from these ties. This is likely to exacerbate tensions in Australia around multiculturalism and national identity that have surfaced recently in violent public disturbances and in debates on border protection, migration and guest-worker schemes. This project will draw on regional and Australian experiences of irregular migration to inform policy and political questions on these prominent issues of citizenship, migration and globalisation.
