Abstract:
In Australia, the Commonwealth executive enjoys significant power to make decisions applying a national interest criterion in Commonwealth statutes. Ultimately, this paper argues that the utilisation of such a criterion by the Commonwealth executive in the Migration Act 1958 (Cth) undermines the rule of law doctrine in Australia.A fundamental tenet of the rule of law is the idea that the law is clear, identifiable and consistent in its approach. Given the imprecise and vague nature of a national interest criterion, it is argued that the notion is often far from clear and identifiable. The net result has meant that aggrieved litigants have had significant difficulties in both understanding and enforcing their rights, given the ambiguity associated with a national interest criterion in the Migration Act 1958 (Cth).Further, an examination of various Australian cases demonstrated a lack of consistency in the interpretation of a national interest criterion in the Migration Act 1958 (Cth). This lack of consistency led to a deficiency of clarity in the operation of particular Australian laws, especially in the context of the Migration Act 1958 (Cth).

Abstract:
On 29 June 2013, the Australian government amended the Migration Act 1958 to extend the definition of the migration zone and prospectively introduce a new visa pathway specific to offshore resources activities. The amendment required all foreign workers participating in or supporting an offshore resources activity in the maritime zone to hold a visa with effect from 30 June 2014. After consultation with stakeholders, the present government introduced migration regulations on 30 June 2014, prescribing three types of temporary work visas that foreign workers can hold to lawfully participate in or support an offshore resources activity. The government relied on the existing visa regime, including the subclass 988 Maritime Crew visa. On 16 July 2014, the senate disallowed these regulations. To restore certainty to the offshore resources industry, the Assistant Minister for Immigration and Border Protection issued a determination on 17 July 2014, effectively removing offshore resources activities from the scope of the Migration Act 1958, therefore enabling foreigners to perform such activities without a visa. The Maritime Union of Australia and the Australian Maritime Officers Union are challenging the decision in the Full Federal Court. The appeals will be heard together in Sydney, during February and March 2015. The author will discuss the latest insights into the visa framework and the direction of this issue as parties strive for differing outcomes. The ongoing uncertainty concerns employers who seek clarity of this issue to meet workforce planning and supply chain management priorities.

Abstract:
Abstract Australia’s Migration Act 1958 (Cth) provides for visas that honour Australia’s international non-refoulement obligations; it also provides for visas to be refused or cancelled on criminal grounds, resulting in removal from Australia. In 2014, Australia introduced mandatory visa cancellation for certain criminal non-citizens sentenced to 12 months or more in prison. Coinciding with these changes was the codification of aspects of refugee and human rights law, the severing of references to the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees, and the introduction of section 197C in the Migration Act, which provides that non-refoulement obligations are irrelevant when considering the power to remove non-citizens. This article focuses on the interaction between these changes in the law, analysing the application of the complex legal provisions which govern the legal position of those seeking protection or owed international non-refoulement obligations. This analysis identifies a number of unintended consequences that appear to have resulted from these changes. These include risks that Australia’s international non-refoulement obligations may not be adequately considered or safeguarded, resulting in serious consequences for the individual concerned, including the possibility of indefinite detention or refoulement. They also include implications for the rule of law, and uncertainty, delay, and cost in aspects of the system for decision making and review.

Abstract:
Over the last three decades, Australian administrative law decisions about who will be allowed to stay in Australia have led to more interaction and tension between the elected government (Parliament and Ministry) and the judiciary than any other subject matter. This interaction has been intensified by Parliament’s attempts to amend the Migration Act 1958 (Cth) to codify judicial review and the procedures to be followed when making decisions under the Act. These amendments were made with the specific aim of minimising, if not practically eliminating, the judiciary’s influence over executive decision-making. However, this outcome has not been achieved. Rather, through a thousand cuts, or more literally cases, the codification efforts of Parliament have been weakened. Instead, the judiciary has put in place an overarching judicial review framework centred on the inherently flexible concept of jurisdictional error. This framework places equal emphasis on both express and implied statutory obligations and procedures. Express procedures have often being interpreted to include judicially created natural justice-like obligations and implied procedures often including other natural justice-like obligations or at least a base level of fairness premised on the constitutionally entrenched premise that the executive cannot decide arbitrarily.

Abstract:
This article offers a critical analysis of the norms, policy, procedures and outcomes associated with contemporary decision-making under the ‘character test’ per Migration Act 1958 (Cth) s 501. Of late there has been a steep increase in the number of visa refusals and cancellations on adverse character grounds due to the convergence of a reformulated character test and single-minded, authoritarian, administration by ministerial office-holders. This article teases out the significant and, arguably, adverse consequences for the quality of administrative justice of ministerial control over visa decisions absent independent administrative review. It is argued that the integrity of ministerial decision-making and the legitimacy of outcomes are dubious. This is because the process of identifying and balancing the important countervailing community interests and individual (human) rights, in the course of reaching the preferable decision, does not appear to be carried out in a detached, proper and genuine manner, pursuant to rational and intelligible reasoning processes. In conclusion, when viewed holistically, the judicial decisions analysed in this article suggest that the unwavering pursuit of community protection has come at a significant adverse cost to administrative justice and, necessarily, to individuals/families who bear the harsh consequences.

Abstract:
This article focuses on certain types of citizenship rights i.e. dual citizenship, provided by home countries to its persons who have migrated to other countries. Granting dual citizenship rights enables the home countries to leverage the potential of financial and human resources of their diaspora, encouraging both remittances and return migration. Citizenship is the fundamental right of the people of a country that provides them with legal and social identity. Countries that experience immigration, whether it be the sender of immigrants or receiver of immigrants have considered the serious concerns and implications of granting dual citizenship. The authors present a theoretical framework in dual citizenship where India, one of the fastest growing economies, is yet to adjudge its effects and impact. Today, national citizenship has been challenged by international citizenship. Therefore, India needs to rethink its decision to grant dual citizenship to its people migrating to different parts of the world. The Citizenship Act of 1955, which was amended in 2005 by the introduction of Overseas Citizenship of India, needs to be revisited and reconsidered in the international context. The paper also attempts to analyze the impacts and effects of granting dual citizenship.

Abstract:
We try to support an idea that urban riots as an important side of the Russian Revolution of 1917 and Civil War had grown up and worked as a part of general social-natural synergism to control traditional and transitive societies including armed social aggression as an effective exogenous tool to suppress overpopulated populations. The source base and the methods’ set made it possible to trace hundreds of human millions in their social group-strata combinations in long unbreakable lines of sociography supporting true scholar approach and valid, highly objective conclusions. Anthroponymic (naming) indices, female, officers’ and outstanding people shares, indices of migration, age-sex balance, rear garrisons and finally of riots act as markers of social aggression of 134 urban populations having had made their way through the Russian “war-revolutionary phase”. The main investigation results are displayed in eloquent graphs.

Abstract:
When considering the problem of employing foreigners on the territory of the Republic of Poland, the analysis of the issue should be focused on legal regulations built on the provisions of the Act of 12 December 2013 on foreigners and the Act of 20 April 2004 on the promotion of employment and labor market institutions. The first legal act after returning to sovereignty in 1918 regulating the admission of foreigners to the Polish labor market was the regulation of the President of the Republic of Poland of June 4, 1927 on the protection of the labor market. Since then, legal acts regulating the employment of foreigners in the territory of the Republic have undergone significant changes. In Polish legislation, significant changes have been made to the provisions on the employment of foreigners, taking into account the need to facilitate access to the Polish labor market. The most important modifications in this respect include: abolition of the two-stage procedure for applying for a work permit, reforming the mechanism of the so-called labor market test, simplifying the procedure of changing the place of work by a foreigner or changing positions, simplifying forms, limiting the number of documents required, creating the possibility of issuing a permit for a longer period, defining clear rules of the employer’s liability. The publication discusses the current procedure for the employment of foreigners on the territory of the Republic of Poland including the revisions of legal norms regulating the issue of entrusting work to foreigners. Labor migration is again an important problem, not only european but also international, becoming the subject of intense discussions. The issue of employing foreigners in Poland has also become even more important. The labor migration process plays an important role in maintaining the balance on the labor market. The priority is to increase the employment rate, promote stable forms of employment and at the same time flexible methods of organizing and providing work.

<p>Cerca de dez anos depois da Batalha da Borracha – quando as diretrizes varguistas instituíram uma forte propaganda para impulsionar a ida de trabalhadores nordestinos rumo à extração de látex na Amazônia –, autoridades públicas e particulares cearenses, com reforço do poder público nacional, movimentaram-se para frear a saída de grandes contingentes populacionais do estado, por meio de iniciativas anti-migratórias. Durante as estiagens na década de 1950, a grande medida de fixação de trabalhadores foi a ampla instalação de frentes de serviços emergenciais. Aliás, medida que igualmente combinava com o discurso de racionalizar os socorros aos retirantes sem serviço e sem comida durante as secas.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter examines how child-care policy in Britain in the early post-war period was shaped by the publication of the 1946 Curtis report, whose recommendations were substantially implemented in the 1948 Children Act. The chapter considers both the report’s position on the administrative restructuring of children’s care and its importance in articulating standards of good practice in child-care based on broad concepts from child psychology. The report’s recommendations specifically for child migration are discussed as well as the different ways in which voluntary societies involved in this work engaged with the Curtis Committee on this issue. Whilst strengthening controls over child migration to a limited extent, the subsequent 1948 Children Act introduced separate obligations for the emigration of children from the care of local authorities compared to voluntary societies, thus creating a two-tier administrative system that was to have significant consequences for many child migrants.

<em>Abstract.</em>—The eel ladder at the Moses-Saunders Dam at Cornwall, Ontario, provides the longest recruitment index of migrating juvenile American eels <em>Anguilla rostrata </em>in the species’ range, spanning 30 years from 1974 to 2003. Historically, mean size of eels ascending the ladder during the peak midsummer migration period was significantly smaller than mean size of eels in the total annual run. From the 1970s to 2000s, mean size during peak migration increased significantly (<EM>P </EM>< 0.0001), a 1.4- and 2.6-fold increase in length and weight, respectively. In 1988, length surpassed a transitional size of 400 mm and has remained above this level since 1993. A new index of passage of small eels (<400 mm) during peak migration was developed to better indicate young eel recruitment. From 1975–1983, the new index indicated a high percentage (61.2–93.8%) of small eels, but a decline started in the mid-1980s, and in 1988, for the first time fell below 50% of peak passage (46.6%). To date, the declining trend of small eel passage continues (1989–2002, x = 31.4 ± 12.7–95% CI). Not only has the number of eels ascending the ladder decreased significantly during peak migration (>3 orders of magnitude, 1982–2001), but there has been a coincident significant increase in the size of eels. Recruitment of small, young eels has essentially ceased.

Abstract:
Migration is inherent in human history. It is what we name a change of habitual residence or tem- porary residence by natural persons. It can be permanent or temporary. Its purpose may be, inter alia, tourism, education, treatment, pilgrimage, or earning money. Of course, also in this case we encounter a number of definitions that define a narrower or broader concept of migration. These forms include emigration, immigration, re-emigration, refugeehood, evacuation, and repatriation. The issue of admitting foreigners to a territory is, as a rule, regulated by national law. The freedom of action of states is, however, to some extent limited by international agreements. International law pays particular attention to refugees. This matter is regulated, in particular, by the Geneva Convention relating to the Status of Refugees of 1951, amended by the New York Protocol of 1967. These issues are also tackled in the acts of international humanitarian law, including the Fourth Geneva Convention relative to the protection of civilian persons in time of war of 1949 and the First Additional Protocol of 1977 to the Geneva Conventions of 1949. Respective legal acts have been also adopted by the European Union and include Directive 2011/95/EU of the European Parlia- ment and of the Council on standards for the qualification of third-country nationals or stateless persons as beneficiaries of international protection, for a uniform status for refugees or for persons eligible for subsidiary protection, and for the content of the protection granted and Regulation (EU) No 604/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing the criteria and mechanisms for determining the Member State responsible for examining an application for international protec- tion lodged in one of the Member States by a third-country national or a stateless person. Migrant workers are another form of migrants, whose status is regulated by the conventions of the International Labour Organization and International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families of 1990. In Europe—within the scope of the Council of Europe—this issue is regulated by the European Convention on the Legal Status of Migrant Workers of 1977. Other acts of international law, including universal treaties such as International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights of 1966, UN Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment of 1984, and UN Convention on the Rights of the Child of 1989 refer partly to some aspects of the status of foreigners. Regional acts such as the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and the European Convention on Human Rights also refer to these issues. The international community has established a number of institutions handling the status and rights of migrants as a whole and their individual types. These institutions include the UN High Commissioner for Refugees and the UN Special Rapporteur on the Human Rights of Migrants and the Committee on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families, which is a treaty body of the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families.

Abstract:
This chapter addresses the Indonesian government's anti-Chinese acts, which had their origin in long-standing ethnic tensions but were directly triggered by Taipei's aid to regional rebellions against the central government in Jakarta. Although the Chinese Nationalists were the main targets, all the ethnic Chinese were subject to discriminatory policies. Beijing's response to the 1959–60 crisis in Indonesia was restrained. Indonesia under Sukarno's leadership was crucial to the People's Republic of China's “intermediate zone” strategy, which focused on cultivating solidarity with Asian and African countries. In a series of meetings with Indonesian diplomats in late 1959 and early 1960, Chinese foreign minister Chen Yi emphasized that the Chinese Communist leadership did not prioritize the interests of the overseas Chinese over its diplomatic ties with Jakarta. Instead, the PRC's primary goal was to advance friendly relations between Beijing and Jakarta while assisting Indonesia with its economic development. Underneath its reconciliatory attitude, however, Beijing was profoundly dissatisfied that the Indonesian government had singled out the ethnic Chinese while condoning Western exploitation.

Abstract:
Chapter 4 chronicles how Italian and Jewish immigration reform advocates appealed to internationalism, humanitarianism, and civil rights rhetoric to fight for refugee legislation first and comprehensive immigration reform later. Unlike World War I, World War II represented an opportunity for reform for many groups who had long fought for less discriminatory immigration laws because of the new geopolitical position of the United States. The Cold War also provided an opening for a broad coalition of ethnic, religious, and civic organizations to come together during the debate over the McCarran-Walter Act of 1952. Although the most diverse interethnic alliance fighting for immigration reform to date fell apart over ideological disagreements and under pressure from entrenched restrictionist politicians, the experience of the early 1950s left a mark for the rest of the decade and shaped their approach to immigration reform until the early 1960s.

Abstract:
“West Indies to London” tracks the migration process—its triumphs and challenges—for a generation of West Indians at the twilight of the British Empire. Their journey was facilitated by postwar economic growth and the 1948 British Nationality Act, which granted full citizenship to Commonwealth subjects who settled in Britain. Synthesizing both secondary and original research, including records of the London Council of Social Service, this chapter argues that whether they were colonial students, artists, or professionals in other fields, West Indian settlers in London shared powerful connections to British culture and society through bonds of language, education, and class.

Abstract:
At the same time that Italian Americans began to promote increasing Italian immigration to the country, Americans largely reaffirmed a policy of limited and restricted immigration with the passage of the 1952 Immigration and Nationality Act. In order to more effectively organize against immigration policies that continued to be based on National Origins System quotas, and to meet the needs of Italian Americans who wanted to expand access to immigration opportunities for Italians, Italian Americans formed the American Committee for Italian Migration (ACIM). ACIM became the leading organization that helped to bring together a number of Italian American individuals and groups who were concerned about immigration reform in the postwar period. This chapter therefore explores the Italian American immigration reform lobby’s origins, scope, and ideological foundations.

Abstract:
In 2018, a team of University of Sussex undergraduate law students working under the supervision of academic staff, conducted the Migration Law Clinic Pilot Study. This was in response to growing and grave concerns about the lack of availability of legal support and services for those seeking asylum and other forms of leave to remain in the UK. These concerns have only heightened in the intervening period: most recently, in response to the government’s publication of a draft Bill of Rights to repeal and replace the Human Rights Act 1998, which would make it much more difficult for potential deportees to rely on Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) to prevent removal and might have a wider impact on the rights and status of vulnerable groups of migrants in the UK; and, among other initiatives, the government’s intention to involuntarily relocate asylum seekers to Rwanda, which will then be responsible for processing the asylum claim and for providing asylum in successful cases. The purposes of the study were: i) To better understand some of the challenges faced by asylum seekers and vulnerable migrants living in Brighton and Hove when applying for asylum, and other forms of leave to remain and leave to enter. ii) To identify the extent and reasons for any shortfall in cost-free immigration and asylum law advice and representation in Brighton and Hove. iii) To gauge whether there was demand for additional free legal advice in the form of a university law clinic, specialising in immigration and asylum law. The team undertook a review of the legal framework that governs the provision of legal aid for immigration and asylum law matters and of relevant academic commentary on its impact. The team also gathered new empirical data based on interviews with a range of local stakeholders. This report sets out the team’s findings, describes how it informed the development of the clinic, and makes recommendations both for the further development of the Clinic and for changes to the provision of legal aid. Finally, it offers advice to other universities contemplating setting up their own clinic in this area.
