New frontiers of circumpolar human migration: towards an integrated society

Abstract

This study contends that the trend of global immigration has an impact on regional  governance. There are important gaps that remain in global governance, e.g. obstacles to an assessment of the economic, socio-cultural and security related consequences, no binding forces for the preparation of development strategies, etc. These gaps hamper immigration management on the regional level. It is necessary to establish binding and worldwide standards’ policies under international law. Therefore, this study highlights
regional discourses to identify the effects that include a number of substantial regional problems in order to integrate immigrants into the Arctic. Some issues of governance regarding competitive economy and socio-culture ecology are raised, focusing on state norms and policies about social sectors and actors through the case study based on the hypotheses.
