摘要：Since the dawn of the age of mass migration, over a century ago, scholars have provided general explanations and analytical frameworks for the phenomenon of human migration. Immigration has emerged as an important political issue in receiving countries during the ‘90s. In the disciplines and subdisciplines associated with the study of politics and government, including political sociology, political science, public policy and public administration and international relations, only recently has migration emerged as a field of study. This article centres around the political focus in the analysis of international migration and treats the effects of international migration on political boundaries: territorial borders of states (and the question of control) and the impact of immigration on citizenship and the cultural boundaries of political community.
