New Internationalist Co-Editor, Dinyar Godrej, writes: "Deported people behave pretty conveniently once they have been bundled off. They keep quiet.

"There are a number of reasons why they do this. They have been shamed and traumatized by what they have undergone and want a clean break. They have landed into great danger and have gone into hiding. They have no wherewithal to support themselves and are struggling to survive. Or perhaps maintaining contact with the life they had wanted and had to leave behind is just too painful.

NOTE: You pay for only one magazine. This trial subscription will start with the special issue on Deportation, plus you'll receive the following three issues free of charge, but there's no obligation to continue as a subscriber after that.
"It's a silence that suits the authorities of wealthy countries who continue to treat people in this inhumane fashion, branding them 'bogus', and claiming smugly that deportees face no danger and have been resettled. Fortunately it's a silence I was eventually able to pierce. Read the testimonies and judge for yourself."

Even the young are not exempt. In this important magazine you'll read the story of a Costa Rican 15-year-old schoolgirl who recalls the day Canadian immigration officers came to her school and arrested her.

You'll find important information in this magazine, information that must be made a part of the national dialogue on refugees, including:
- Deportation in numbers - Compare the record of Australia, the US, Canada, Ireland and Britain.
- Struggling eight years for rights - How a Ugandan sought sanctuary from persecution and suffered years in and out of detention, was deported and then finally won the right to live in the UK.

Issue #433 of the New Internationalist magazine also includes:
- Inequality costs the earth - Greater equality, both between and within nations, would be better for us all, as well as for the planet.

If you take up this introductory trial subscription you'll receive:
- Issue #433 of the New Internationalist magazine on Deportation of those who are turned back at our borders.

- FREE - the next 3 issues of New Internationalist magazine, each worth $9.50, but yours free of charge.


When you subscribe you'll receive the best independent magazine in the world for reporting the big issues of human rights, sustainability and global justice. On eight occasions the New Internationalist magazine has received the annual award for Best International Coverage in the global Independent Press Awards.

In the meantime you can preview selected articles from the magazine here.

PLEASE NOTE: This introductory trial offer is for new Australian subscribers only. Overseas subscribers must pay for a full subscription.
