Abstract
This editorial introduces the Virtual Special Issue on the Politics of Migration by presenting a review of
migration and refugee related articles published in Political Geography. We have identified two major
shifts in scope during the last 30 years. First, the scalar focus has changed from nation-state policies to
supranational migration agreements and transnational migrant experiences. Second, the theoretical
focus has moved from geopolitics to biopolitics. Ten selected articles illustrate three central themes:
regulation of migration, practices of border enforcement and migrant experiences.
