有人声称，日本不是一个移民国家。日本的独特之处在哪里，它与其他国家有什么共同之处？这篇文章考察了日本的独特之处，并调查了居住和公民身份问题。本文认为，日本的历史遗产和国际人权对日本的移民和法律产生了影响，考虑到了新政策的必要性，并探讨了一些棘手的问题。全球化和人口老龄化正在引发一场关于对高技能工人、学生和护士/护理人员实施更宽松的准入政策的辩论。棘手的问题包括种族歧视，殖民遗产和东亚仍然存在的冷战突出了这一点。通过与选定的发达国家进行比较，本文指出了日本移民和法律面临的几个挑战。值得注意的是，日本是唯一没有反歧视法的发达工业化民主国家。
It has been claimed that Japan is not a country of immigration. Where is Japan's distinctiveness evident, and what features does it share with other countries? This article examines the unique points of Japan and investigates problems of residence and citizenship. This article argues that Japan's historical legacy and international human rights have had an impact on Japan's migration and law, takes into consideration the need for new policies and examines some thorny issues. Globalisation and an ageing population are generating a debate on implementing a more liberal admission policy for highly skilled workers, students and nurses/care workers. Thorny issues comprise ethnic discrimination underscored by a colonial legacy and the still existing cold war in East Asia. Drawing a comparison with selected developed countries, this article indicates several challenges for Japan's migration and law. Markedly, Japan is the only developed industrialised democracy that does not have an antidiscrimination law.
