Abstract
While attempts to control unwanted migration into Britain stem back four centuries or more, in an era of globalisation, mass migration, shifting modes of regulation and a moral panic about ‘globally mobile’ terrorists and criminals, the role of the immigration enforcer is taking on a new significance. This paper assesses recent developments within the agencies most involved in the operation of internal and external immigration controls, and considers the implications for the policing of immigration in the new world disorder.
