Contextual entrepreneurship and mixed embeddedness approach alike emphasize the importance of the political-institutional embeddedness next to social embeddedness along with further contexts for migrant entrepreneurship, yet the aspect of international migration policies as an important institutional framework has been somewhat neglected. This paper introduces the case of political-institutional embeddedness of migrant entrepreneurship in Japan from an international migration policy perspective, discussing embeddedness of migrant entrepreneurs and their support institutions from a multi-scalar perspective. By analysing the migration policy context of migrant entrepreneurship at different policy levels, that is, national, regional and urban scales, it demonstrates the analytical value of differentiating policies along these scales and also their inter-connectedness, conceptually proposing the inter- and trans-scalarity of these policy contexts. By bringing issues of migration regimes and particularly the East Asian developmental state as a lens to analyse migrant entrepreneurship, it brings further approaches in comparatively analysing different entrepreneurial contexts for future research.

日本移民创业支持政策的多尺度嵌入

情境创业和混合嵌入方法都强调政治制度嵌入仅次于社会嵌入以及移民创业的进一步背景的重要性，但国际移民政策作为一个重要制度框架的方面在某种程度上被忽视了。本文从国际移民政策视角介绍日本移民创业的政治制度嵌入性案例，从多尺度视角讨论移民企业家及其支持机构的嵌入性。通过分析不同政策层面（即国家、区域和城市）移民创业的移民政策背景，它展示了在这些尺度上区分政策的分析价值及其相互关联性，从概念上提出了这些政策背景的内部和跨尺度。通过将移民制度问题，特别是东亚发展状态问题作为分析移民创业的镜头，它为未来的研究提供了比较分析不同创业环境的进一步方法。
