Funded Activity Summary

Border Controls and the Movement of People in a Globalizing Asia-Pacific Region: A Cross-National Study of Four Evolving Control Regimes. This project examines emerging border-control regimes in four countries of the Asia-Pacific region - Australia, Japan, Indonesia and Malaysia. Shifting away from traditional images of frontiers, it treats national borders as complex social realities, and argues that the location of ?borders? is increasingly becoming diffused within and outside the territory of the nation state. It thus contributes to important theoretical debates about globalization and its relationship to migration and national power, while also presenting information directly relevant to cooperation between the nations of the region on issues related to the cross-border movement of people.
