Nazi salutes are set to become illegal in Australia after a spike in racism.
It comes after a letter was signed by more than 600 prominent Australians denouncing anti-Semitism and racism.
But Massey University Sociologist Paul Spoonley warns that the law change may have unintended consequences.
He says there should be more public dialogue and education before legislation is introduced.
