Abstract Due to the illegal movement of goods and people, the Khuzistan-Basra frontier, like many other borderlands in the region, represented a liminal space for border dwellers and the Iranian state. Although scholars have written about the migration that was endemic to the early nation-building period, the consequences of this movement in the latter half of the 20th century require further exploration. Well into the 1970s, Iranian migrants and border dwellers complicated citizenship, evinced by the Pahlavi monarchy's failure or refusal to offer them their rights. The Iranian archives prove that, decades into the nation-building project, local dynamics continued to exert tremendous influence on Iranians and even superseded national policies.

走私者、移民和难民：伊朗-伊拉克边界，1925-1975

摘要 由于货物和人员的非法流动，胡齐斯坦-巴士拉边境与该地区的许多其他边境地区一样，代表了边境居民和伊朗国家的边界​​空间。虽然学者们已经写过早期国家建设时期特有的移民，但这一运动在 20 世纪下半叶的后果需要进一步探索。进入 1970 年代，伊朗移民和边境居民使公民身份变得复杂，巴列维君主制未能或拒绝向他们提供权利就证明了这一点。伊朗档案证明，在国家建设项目实施数十年后，当地动态继续对伊朗人产生巨大影响，甚至取代了国家政策。
