1980年代出現了一個全球性的移民市場，詐多國家在這個移氏市場內爭相吸 引全球經濟菁英前往居留。這些國家提出各種商業移民方案，彼此競爭移民的人力與財力資本，其主妥目標是妥吸引香港和台灣的經濟菁英份予以及他們的資金。商業移氏方案企圖以移民身份交換資本投資的方式，可以被視為是地主團為取得「全球資本供給系統J的一種捷徑。在這樣的演變下，某些國家的居留權逐漸被視為是一項提供給擁有資本的人，我將這樣的變化稱之為移民身份的商品化，藉著商品化這樣的概念，我企圖描述一個移民身份越來越容易為有財力的人所取得的過程。永久居留權逐漸變成是具有不同價格標籤的市場產品，它的價格金積於地主團在世界體系中所估的位置。本研究的目的是希望運用對於台灣商業移氏的研究來撿視移氏身份如何成為一個市場上的商品，以及移氏市場的壟斷性質。然後，我也將論發，移民身份的商品化直接強化移氏仲介在移民過年星的重妥性。

In the 1980s， a global immigration market where nation-states are competing with each other to attract potential business immigrants has emerged. Immigrant visas are ever more available to people who have financial resources and who are willing to invest in host countries， a process I conceptualize as“commodification" of immigration channels. The scheme to attract capital investments in exchange the immigrant status is an invention that creates a shortcut for host countries to plug into a “globalcapital supply system." Various kinds of business migration programs are typical of such scheme. By utilizing a case study of Taiwanese business migration， this paper deliver a detailed analysis of the process of commodification of residency. The research has two goals: first， to analyze how residency became commodified and the monopolistic nature of residency market; second， to support my arg!lment that business migration programs has strengthened he potential immigrants' dependency on private agencies instead of networks in the immigration process. The data collection mainly relies on in-depth interviews with immigration consultant firms and content analysis of immigration advertisements on newspapers.
