"This book compares the policies of Australia and Italy towards boat people who have
arrived in the two countries since the early 1990s. While the regular and varied inflow
of immigrants arriving at national airports, ferry terminals and train stations is
seldom witnessed by the public, the arrival of boat people is often played out in
the media and consequently attracts disproportionate political and public attention.
Both Australia and Italy faced similar dilemmas, but the nature of political debate
on the issue, the types of strategies introduced, and the effects that policy changes
had on boat people diverged considerably. This book argues that contrasting migration
path dependencies, disparate political values within the Left, and varying international
obligations best explain the different approaches taken by the two countries to boat
people" (ed.)
