dc.description.abstractThis paper discusses Australia's treatment of asylum-seekers in the Nauru Regional Processing Centre. I explore how Australia has managed to avoid large-scale criticism and discuss a few of the factors contributing to this evasion. Primarily, this paper attributes Australia's ability to escape responsibility to the complicity of other actors involved in the abuse of asylum-seekers and discuss how this shared responsibility lessens the burden placed on Australia. Finally, it looks specifically at the role of the principle- agent relationship and the absence of institutions that enforce the respect of human rights and argue that this enables a lessened critique of Australia.
