Han har i sin forskning konsentrert seg om problemstillinger knyttet til politikk, politiske system og sameksistens i mangfoldige og postnasjonale samfunn, med særlig fokus på demokrati, medborgerskap, offentlige rom, identitetspolitikk, mobilitet og deltakelse. Det empiriske nedslagsfelt har vært Vest-Europa og Den europeiske unionen. Sicakkan har vært internasjonal koordinator for prosjektet Eurosphere (2007-2013). I dette prosjektet fokuserte han på utviklingen av en offentlig sfære innenfor Den europeiske unionen. En liten elite dominererer ordskiftet, mens andre grupperinger ikke når fram til beslutningstagere på EU-nivå, viser foreløpige resultater pr. 2010.). Videre har prosjektet funnet at forholdet mellom EU-institusjonene og det sivile samfunn defineres i stor grad av EU institusjonene.)

Sicakkan har vært redaktør for Norsk tidsskrift for migrasjonsforskning - NTMF (2005-2009) og Nordic Journal of Migration Research - NJMR (2010-2014). NJMR utgis i regi av Nordic Migration Research Association.
