مستخلص: In the call for articles for this issue of CJRES, we asked for articles that would address the phenomena of the increase of intra- and international migration of people, whether as economic migrants, refugees or asylum seekers of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. As well as growing numbers of migrants and their increasing diversity, the nature of movement itself had changed in many cases from a permanent movement to settle in a new location to more transitory migrations within and between several nation states. This special issue examines critically the changing nature of contemporary migration, its relationship to different spatial scales (from the local through the regional to the international), its connections to economic and social growth and decline, the effects of different forms of regulation, the ways in which different institutions structure migration flows and the social and economic consequences for both sending and receiving locations.
