Intersectionality in policy
The language of intersectionality has been increasingly adopted in Australia by leading gender-equality and gender-focused organisations, as well as policy makers, advocates and other stakeholders. In this article we seek to interrogate the application and operationalisation of intersectionality in policy. We examine the way the use of this terminology at times reflects the co-option of an approach that originally sought to capture the complex re…
Woman, migrant or worker? Human trafficking, violence against women and women’s safety in Asean
As part of the global agenda to eliminate all forms of violence against women (VAW), there has been significant investments in areas of family and intimate partner violence. Simultaneously, human trafficking has been predominant on the international stage with a focus on labour and migration-related abuse and exploitation of women and girls. Within public policy, law and welfare infrastructures, VAW and migrant labour exploitation have been appro…
Beyond Technology-Facilitated Abuse
This paper explores the importance of moving beyond a narrow examination of technology-facilitated abuse (TFA) and domestic and family violence (DFV). Drawing on findings from two studies that capture the experiences of over 300 temporary visa holders in Australia, we detail how technology is one tool used within the context of patterns of control and isolation. We detail the experiences of TFA in our sample and then examine the importance of loc…
Move-on powers and practices of social exclusion
This paper extends Valverde’s call to examine spatiotemporal governance and jurisdiction in the exercise of formal and informal control through an analysis of the everyday policing of public spaces in Victoria, Australia. Move-on powers were introduced via legislation in 2009, following calls for greater police powers to combat antisocial behaviour and violence, predominantly in the Melbourne CBD. While initially presented as a response to issues…
Freeing the Modern Slaves, One Click at a Time
This paper analyses relations between human trafficking, modern slavery, and information communication technology. It looks at the history of the technology-trafficking nexus and flags some key advances in the counter-trafficking discourse in the last two decades. It provides an overview of how technology has been framed as both a part of the problem and part of the solution in the trafficking/slavery context and emphasises the impact of such dev…
Theorizing sites and strategies of differential inclusion
In this article, I extend the theoretical concept of differential inclusion, as developed in 2013 by Mezzadra and Neilson, via an empirical examination of the experiences of unlawful migrant workers in Australia and those who employ them. I explore the dynamic and shifting positionality of the unlawful migrant by examining several sites and strategies used to achieve differential inclusion in the Australian context, including migrant worker netwo…
Introduction
Family violence risk, migration status and ‘vulnerability’
In this paper, we draw on accounts of family violence risk offered by women from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities living in Victoria Australia, and examine how women’s migration and experiences of difference impact on the risks they face from family violence. Women in refugee and immigrant communities are often understood as experiencing additional barriers and vulnerabilities when they face family violence; implicitly cre…
Sex Trafficking and Modern Slavery
Human trafficking and modern slavery have captured the imagination and attention of the international community. This book builds on the authors' first volume, Sex Trafficking: International context and response. Much has changed since the first volume was published, not least the shift away from sex trafficking to modern slavery as the dominant focus in policy and advocacy. Yet, as the authors argue, little has changed with regards to how nation…
Addressing Family Violence through Visa Sponsor Checks
In 2017, the Migration Amendment (Family Violence and Other Measures) Bill 2016 (Cth) was reintroduced. The Bill proposes to mandate character checks for people seeking to sponsor family visa applications and to refuse sponsorship applications on grounds of conviction for various offences relating to abuse and family violence. With reference to the Senate Legal and Constitutional Affairs References Committee inquiry into the Bill, this comment ou…
Migration Review Tribunal Decisions in Student Visa Cancellation Appeals
This article examines the decisions of the Migration Review Tribunal (now the Administrative Appeals Tribunal) in relation to appeals of student visa cancellations. It draws on a 2010–11 study of appealed cases, and discusses both quantitatively and qualitatively the appeals and the decisions. The study builds on literature surrounding the regulation of migration and non-citizens within national borders by analysing the regulation of internationa…
The maelstrom of punishment, mental illness, intellectual disability and cognitive impairment
While the issue of mental health and its intersection with the criminal justice system has gained traction in recent years, there remains a limited examination of the full remit of offenders with disabilities and cognitive impairments in prison, and the ways in which punishment is utilized to respond, control and contain these individuals’ lives. The rising over-representation of people with mental illness, disabilities and/or cognitive impairmen…
Human Trafficking
Human trafficking captured the attention of the global community well over a decade ago, inspiring multifarious international, national, regional and local responses. While formally recognized as one of the major threats associated with transnational organized crime, human trafficking remains an issue about which much has been written and yet little is known or supported by empirical evidence. The essays selected for this volume reflect four key …
Fluid Security in the Asia Pacific
This book explores the experiences of temporary migrants in the Asia-Pacific region. It develops the original concept of 'fluid security' to analyse the way in which persons carry a set of tools, stra
They Died of a Broken Heart’
In this article we document women's experiences of post‐release survival and death in V ictoria, A ustralia. In particular, we map the interrelated impacts of trauma, criminalisation, institutionalisation and imprisonment. We build upon the existing post‐release mortality research, which has focused on quantifying and describing death, and provide a critical account of survival through the lens of women's experiences. Critically, we challenge the…
Guest Editor Introduction for Special Issue on Borders, Gender and Punishment
In 2003, Punishment & Society ran a special issue on migration and punishment documenting the harshening of penal rhetoric and practices against migrants. Since then the scale of movement and the securitization of the border has only increased. Yet, with a few notable exceptions, scholars in the field of ‘punishment and society’ have, for the most part, paid little attention to the treatment of non-citizens either at the borders or in the crimina…
Women Exiting Prison
In the Eyes of the Beholder
Over the past decade, the border and border policing has figured as central to identifying and responding to trafficking. This article draws on original research into immigration officers’ decision-making — both at the border and within the nation — to identify the persistent preoccupation with suspect travellers. Examining research in Australia and Thailand that spans seven years, the article brings together research that demonstrates the predom…
Sex Trafficking
Trafficking in persons, particularly the trafficking of women into sexual servitude (sex trafficking) has generated much attention over the past decade. This book provides a critical examination of the international and national frameworks developed to respond to this issue - focused both on the design of policy responses and their implementation. Uniquely it brings together, and brings to life, the voices of policymakers, non-government agencies…
Women's survival post-imprisonment
The article examines the issue of women's unnatural post-prison deaths in Victoria, Australia, through the lens of women's accounts of survival and near-death after exit from prison. Central to this analysis is the seldom addressed or acknowledged relationship between trauma and the multiple harms and disadvantages that women experience both in the prison system and on the outside. In seeking to explicate the centrality oftrauma to women's experi…
Women, Trauma, Criminalisation and Imprisonment
This paper provides an exploratory analysis of the relationship between trauma, women's criminalisation and imprisonment. Research in this area predominantly focuses on women's pathways to imprisonment and trajectories characterised by victimisation, and social and economic disadvantage (cf Maloney et al 2009; DeHart 2005; Fine 1992). In this article we seek to shift the focus to explore the connections between women's experiences of trauma, crim…
Auditing the Australian Response to Trafficking
This article was written in response to the April 2009 publication of the Australian National Audit Office (ANAO) audit of the management of the Australian Government Action Plan to Eradicate Trafficking in Persons. It considers both the material presented to the audit office from a range of government agencies and the findings and recommendations arising from the audit. The article seeks to identify significant concerns regarding the operation o…
Human trafficking and human rights
Anti-trafficking efforts have a long tradition of engaging a human rights advocacy approach. However, the approaches adopted have been clearly gendered in their focus and, as Kapur identifies (2005), quite narrow in their scope, as they have focused primarily on the trafficking of women into the sex industry (sex trafficking), sex work and sex workers (Kapur 2005). This article argues that there is much to be gained through examining the potentia…
