Wither war crimes investigations. That, at least, seems to be the current sentiment of the Australian effort to investigate alleged war crimes committed in Afghanistan, that land of tormented invaders and traumatised citizens. PRISON RAPE, BY RICHARD EVANS Prison Rape, by Richard Evans. The trivialisation of sexual violence through what passes as humour is much less common than it once was. Jokes about rape are not innocent, are not harmless fun, are not unconnected to the horrible crime they make light of. Their gradual marginalisation represents social change of real importance.LORENZO VERACINI

However, in this article I argue that despite concerns about 'national interest', 'security', and 'border protection', asylum seekers - dehumanised people piled up in different configurations outside of Australia's borders - are useful, indeed necessary, to settler Australia.Subscribe
