Question

Did managerialism cause SIEVX ?

Answer 1

The root cause of SIEVX was the classic flow of impoverished populations to areas of greater resources and opportunity.  That, coupled by the greed of smugglers who continue to haul human cargo in critically unsafe, deplorable conditions led to the large number of fatalities.  The response, or lack thereof, by the Australian government only served to exacerbate the situation.  However, I don't think the bureaucratic response really met the bar to be categorized as related to managerialism.
