Description

Product Description The book addresses the legality of indefinite detention in countries including Australia, the United Kingdom and Canada, enabling a rich cross-fertilisation of experiences and discourses. The issue has arisen where a government is frustrated in its ability to remove a non-citizen subject to a removal order and employs a power to detain him until removal. The cases raise fundamental questions about the nature and extent of immigration powers, the legal position of non-citizens and counter-terrorism law and policy. More broadly, the judgments have become key reference points in discussions of constitutionalism, rights and a range of contemporary issues in public law. The book analyses the legal context, reasoning and implications of the case law on indefinite detention. It argues that the law of each jurisdiction contains ample resources to support a ruling that indefinite detention is illegal. It demonstrates that, taking into account variations in legal frameworks and doctrines, a judge's response to indefinite detention is determined by his or her answer to the question whether a non-citizen, subject to a removal order, retains a right to liberty. It details how a judge's answer flows through his or her adjudication on the scope of the relevant exception to liberty. The thesis on which the book is based won the 2010 Marks Medal from the University of Toronto Law Faculty for the best graduate thesis. Review "The comparative nature of the book is one of its great strengths...The book's thesis is supported by sound and convincing legal analysis and benefits from persuasive and engaging writing." --Australian Journal of Administrative Law"The Liberty of Non-Citizens is a must-read for academics and practitioners interested in immigration, human rights and national security law and provides a unique comparative contribution to scholarship on national security and immigration issues. Thwaites's attention to detail is impressive and indeed essential for illustrating the differences in interpretive approaches adopted in these jurisdictions." --The Modern Law Review About the Author Rayner Thwaites is a Senior Lecturer at the Faculty of Law, University of Sydney.
