SEMINAR FIVE: THE RIGHT TO SEEK (AND ENJOY) ASYLUM:OFFSHORE PROCESSING
In seminar five we will critically address the issue of access to asylum and certain extra-
territorial border controls employed by Australia from 2001-07, and 2012 – to date.
Specifically, the practice of sending asylum seekers to third countries to be detained and

You should read carefully about offshore processing with a keen eye on the relevant
articles I have cited for background reading (below). Please prepare answers to the issues
raised for discussion in class.
