International Migration (IM)

International Migration is an internationally respected, peer‑reviewed academic journal launched in 1961 and published quarterly by Wiley‑Blackwell on behalf of the International Organization for Migration (IOM). It stands as a central publication in the field of migration research, offering a multidisciplinary platform that connects theoretical insight with real‑world policy relevance. The journal welcomes contributions from demographers, sociologists, economists, political scientists, geographers, and other scholars studying human mobility and its social, economic, and political dimensions. Over its more than six decades of publication, International Migration has documented evolving global migration trends—from post‑war labour migration and diasporas to contemporary debates on refugees, border policies, integration, and transnationalism. Each issue contains original research articles, comparative analyses, and critical policy debates that illuminate the drivers, patterns, and consequences of international mobility across regions. By integrating rigorous empirical evidence with conceptual discussion, the journal supports researchers and policymakers in understanding complex migration dynamics and crafting informed responses to migration‑related challenges. Its hybrid open access model and indexing in major academic databases enhance its accessibility and impact worldwide. With its focus on both scholarly excellence and global relevance, International Migration remains essential reading for anyone engaged in migration studies and related areas of social science.
