长期以来，移民行为一直被分析为现代民族国家运作的工具。一个特别的焦点是种族排斥和限制，被雄心勃勃的白色，新的世界民族国家所采用：澳大利亚，新西兰，加拿大和美国。本文再次回顾了移民限制的漫长的现代历史，以便将这些定居者-殖民地基于种族的排斥（大量研究）的历史与后殖民民族国家的移民限制（很少研究）联系起来。它认为有必要扩大移民限制历史的范围，在地理上，时间上和实质上：超越定居者国家，超越第二次世界大战，超越“种族”。本文以亚太地区为研究对象，将新西兰、澳大利亚、美国、加拿大等国的早期移民法与马来西亚、新加坡、香港、斐济等国的早期移民法合并为一个分析框架。
Abstract Immigration acts have long been analysed as instrumental to the working of the modern nation-state. A particular focus has been the racial exclusions and restrictions that were adopted by aspirationally white, new world nation-states: Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States. This article looks again at the long modern history of immigration restriction in order to connect the history of these settler-colonial race-based exclusions (much studied) with immigration restriction in postcolonial nation-states (little studied). It argues for the need to expand the scope of immigration restriction histories geographically, temporally and substantively: beyond the settler nation, beyond the Second World War, and beyond ‘race’. The article focuses on the Asia-Pacific region, bringing into a single analytical frame the early immigration laws of New Zealand, Australia, the United States, and Canada on the one hand and those of Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Fiji on the other.
