“…While much of the literature has recognised the disproportionate deportation of New Zealanders under s 501 (Migration Act) compared to the total migrant population in Australia, the effects on Pasifika New Zealanders, in particular, have not always been recognised. Annually, between half and three-quarters of all s 501 deportations from Australia are to New Zealand, despite New Zealanders only comprising 7.6 per cent of the Australian overseas-born population; 60 per cent of those deported identify as Māori (tangata whenua/Indigenous people of New Zealand) or Pasifika (Billings and Hoang 2019;O'Regan 2018;Weber and Powell 2020). The high deportation rate of Pasifika New Zealanders is the culmination of many migration policy factors aimed at their differential inclusion-this is clear when the migration policy trajectory is charted.…”

In Australia, past and present, Pacific Islanders have been labelled as undesirable others, included to temporarily fill labour shortages as required, controlled while resident in the country and removed when no longer deemed necessary. Pacific Islanders’ experiences in Australia reveal the inception, continuity and durability of differential inclusion produced by border control mechanisms. This paper traces Australia’s history of deporting Pacific Islanders over more than a century: from indentured labour and blackbirding, colonial occupation of Pacific Islands and the White Australia Policy, to more recent patterns of selective inclusion, such as the labour mobility schemes, to the disproportionate effects on Pacific Islanders of modifications to the criteria for deportability introduced in 2014 with the amendments to Section 501 of the Migration Act 1958 (Cth). By tracing the past–present circular border policies, this paper argues that the high number of Pasifika New Zealanders deported from Australia represents a continuation of a regime of differential inclusion.

“…Section 116 is even more far-reaching in its application than is Section 501, and it is often used on grounds of alleged or suspected criminal activity and/or associations, with no distinction made between types of offending. Unlike Section 501, Section 116 contains no judicial processes to appeal visa cancellations (Weber & Powell, 2020). This can be seen as a further harshening of Australia's crimmigration.…”

Editors' Note: Like Woolard (Chapter 11), the authors of this chapter examine crimmigration, in this case with a focus on emigrants from New Zealand who are living in Australia-and being deported back to New Zealand. Through two case studies, the authors describe the experiences of deportees and the lack of support they receive once back in New Zealand. As evidenced by these two chapters, and as mentioned in the chapters by Hendricks (Chapter 10) and Salas, Schweikart, and Hendricks (Chapter 12), crimmigration is a global phenomenon and a challenge faced by immigrants in many different countries. Important to this discussion is that, with the merging of criminal law and immigration law, it has become morally and legally easier to exclude those who "do not belong" in society.

“…There seems to be a slow decline in the perception of risk. Some (more extreme) say that "risk society" and its impact on criminal policy and criminal law has ended (Weber and Powell 2020). Other authors believe that the "crime is perceived as merely one more problem to manage rather than the most significant one" (Pratt and Anderson 2020, p. 13).…”

The objective of this article is to answer the question of when an increase in criminal legislation is necessary. To this end, a review was conducted on the positions that deal directly or peripherally with increases in criminal legislation, with a focus on how these positions relate to increases, such as the more general positions related to “law and social change”, as well as the more specific positions related to penal inflation and “penal populism”. Special reference will be made to the expansion thesis, which, in general, has been well received in Ibero-America. In the second section of this study, the answer to the question is addressed, considering elements from the “law and social change” approach and Sutherland’s reflections on white-collar criminality.
