Australia’s detention-deportation regime is setting the agenda for New Zealand’s domestic criminal justice system, with implications for criminological understandings of ‘crimmigration’ and ‘bordered penality’. In response to recent changes in Australian migration law which have seen an increased number of deportations to Aotearoa New Zealand, the New Zealand government introduced legislation, the Returning Offenders (Management and Information) (“ROMI”) Act 2015, which created a monitoring regime for returning New Zealanders convicted of criminal offending in an overseas jurisdiction. The sentence an individual is subject to in Australia is extended, both geographically and temporally, creating multiple punishments for this particular group of offenders. While ostensibly modelled from domestic parole arrangements, in practice the ROMI regime entails greater restriction while offering less in the way of legal protection. The differential treatment of returning New Zealanders is sustained through their discursive construction as both “criminals” and de facto “aliens”. By treating returnees as threatening outsiders to be contained, rather than vulnerable people to be supported, the New Zealand state also extends the risk logics underpinning the Australian regime. Although the ROMI Act is novel, the regime conforms to the racialised patterns of exclusion and criminalisation which have persisted in Aotearoa New Zealand since colonisation.

澳大利亚的拘留驱逐制度正在设定新西兰国内刑事司法制度的议程，这将对犯罪学对“犯罪”和“无期徒刑”的理解产生影响。为了应对澳大利亚移民法的最新变化（将其驱逐到新西兰的人数越来越多），新西兰政府出台了立法，即《 2015年回归者（管理和信息）法》（“ ROMI”），该法建立了监督制度。归还在海外司法管辖区被判犯有刑事罪的新西兰人。在澳大利亚，个人所受的刑罚在地理上和时间上都得到延长，从而对这一特殊犯罪群体作出了多种惩罚。表面上是仿照国内假释安排，在实践中，ROMI制度带来了更大的限制，而法律保护的方式却受到了更少的限制。归国新西兰人的区别对待通过他们既是“罪犯”又是事实上的“外国人”的话语结构得以维持。通过将海归视为威胁要限制的局外人，而不是要使脆弱的人们得到支持，新西兰州还扩展了支持澳大利亚政权的风险逻辑。尽管《罗米法案》是新颖的，但该政权符合自殖民以来新西兰奥特罗阿州一直存在的种族隔离和刑事定罪模式。通过将海归视为威胁要限制的局外人，而不是要使脆弱的人们得到支持，新西兰州还扩展了支持澳大利亚政权的风险逻辑。尽管《罗米法案》是新颖的，但该政权符合自殖民以来新西兰奥特罗阿州一直存在的种族隔离和刑事定罪模式。通过将海归视为威胁要限制的局外人，而不是要使脆弱的人们得到支持，新西兰州还扩展了支持澳大利亚政权的风险逻辑。尽管《罗米法案》是新颖的，但该政权符合自殖民以来新西兰奥特罗阿州一直存在的种族隔离和刑事定罪模式。
