Extradition law concerns the repatriation of international fugitives to the place of their crime. The Australian Extradition Act (passed over 20 years ago) fails to keep pace with aspects of international criminality, particularly political and fiscal offences. It needs reform. This thesis is about reforming Australia's extradition laws.
