Abstract:

Le concept de «transnationalisme» s’est récemment imposé dans les études en migrations. Ce concept, né de la compréhension que les migrants maintiennent des relations avec leur pays d’origine bien après la migration, et que la migration ne signifie ainsi pas nécessairement une rupture avec la région d’origine, permet de saisir l’insertion simultanée des migrants dans différents endroits du globe. Cet article s’intéresse à la manière dont les habitants (migrants et non-migrants) d’une petite ville, Neuchâtel, vivent différentes formes d’«être transnational». Dans ce but, une distinction est opérée entre une «transnationalité de réseau» et une « subjectivité transnationale ». La première dimension inclut les réseaux sociaux transnationaux, tandis que la deuxième se réfère aux classifications cognitives d’appartenance dans l’espace transnational. L’analyse des réseaux personnels de 250 habitants de la ville de Neuchâtel et des entretiens qualitatifs révèlent quatre types idéaux de transnationalité. Ces formations transnationales sont étroitement liées au positionnement social des individus ainsi qu’au processus d’intégration dans l’espace local et transnational.

Abstract:

Zusammenfassung Transnationales ethnisches Unternehmertum gewinnt im Rahmen der aktuellen Debatte um transnationale Migration als neues Forschungsfeld der Migrations- und Stadtentwicklungsforschung zunehmend an Bedeutung. Im Gegensatz zur bereits viel diskutierten ,klassischen' ethnischen Ökonomie zeichnen sich transnationale ethnische Unternehmer durch ihre Integration in grenzübergreifende Produktions- und Vertriebsnetzwerke und Formen transnationaler Lebens- und Geschäftsführung aus. Der Beitrag zeigt auf der Grundlage einer explorativen Untersuchung über transnationale türkischstämmige Unternehmer in Duisburg-Marxloh, dass verschiedene Formen transnationalen ethnischen Unternehmertums im Hinblick auf akteursspezifische und strukturelle Merkmale sowie die Intensität transnationaler ökonomischer Aktivität existieren und diskutiert die Bedeutung des transnationalen ethnischen Unternehmertums für die lokale Ökonomie und die Stadtteilentwicklung. Es können drei ,Generationen' transnationalen ethnischen Unternehmertums sowie drei Intensitätsformen transnationaler ökonomischer Aktivität identifiziert werden. Die transnationalen ethnischen Unternehmer leisten einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Stabilisierung des Stadtteils und können Aufwertungsprozesse im Hinblick auf die baulich-räumliche Gestaltung und Imageentwicklung des Stadtteils in Gang setzen. Gleichzeitig scheint die Vernetzung der transnationalen ethnischen Unternehmer untereinander als auch deren Integration in Stadtentwicklungsstrategien und institutionelle Maßnahmen gering ausgeprägt. Es wird deutlich, dass transnationales ethnisches Unternehmertum als strategisches Potenzial der Stadtentwicklung bislang nicht ausgeschöpft wird und weiterer Forschungs- und Handlungsbedarf besteht.

Abstract:

The large-scale post-World War II labor migrations from the Mediterranean countries and North Africa to northern and western Europe have resulted in the presence of millions of foreigners and their families in the host countries. This article discusses the ambiguous situation of many of these migrants, who are not fully settled in the countries in which they live, but are nevertheless likely to remain there in the near future or indeed for good. The article also inquires into the ways in which the political, cultural, and economic relations between the migrants' countries of origin and their countries of residence have been affected by these migrations, and into the bilateral and multilateral arrangements that regulate these processes of migration and settling.

Abstract:

AbstractInternational migrants’ cross-border political activities challenge singular notions of national citizenship and political belonging. Yet most sociological studies of migrants’ transnational political engagement are based on single national groups in the USA, and limit themselves to examining how assimilation and contexts of reception determine migrants’ propensity to engage with homeland politics—thereby under theorizing the influence of origin countries. This study moves beyond this approach by recognizing the multi-directionality of migration, and testing the applicability of existing theoretical approaches across two different origins and receiving contexts. We compare a sample of Colombian and Dominican migrants in Spain and Italy, analyzing how contexts in countries of origin, as well as migrants’ social networks across borders, interact with assimilation and contexts of reception to determine migrants’ political transnational engagement. Findings reveal migrants’ transnational political engagement in Spain and Italy appears to be a highly selective process dominated by a small minority of well-educated males from high social status in origin. Findings also suggest immigrant incorporation and transnational political engagement form a dialectical relationship operating at different scales that is simultaneously complementary and contradictory. Contextual conditions in origin countries explain observed much of variation in Colombian and Dominican migrants’ transnational political engagement.

Abstract:

Eine Analyse globaler Ungleichheiten kann nicht im Rahmen des Nationalstaats erfolgen. Zentral ist vielmehr das Verhältnis zwischen den Ressourcen von Personen und den vielfältigen – auch transnationalen – Kontexten, in denen die Ressourcen Wert gewinnen. Der Artikel zeigt an Fallvergleichen zwischen Süd-Nord-Migrant_innen, die ihre soziale Lage im Zuge der Migration deutlich verbessern konnten, wie diese an eine Vielzahl von Kontexten anschließen und so strukturelle Hürden überwinden. Dabei wird analytisch zwischen sozial differenzierten, politisch umkämpften und territorial gebundenen Kontextrelationen unterschieden werden. Da diese Kontextrelationen oft transnational sind, wird eine Methode wie die hier verwendete Dokumentarische Methode benötigt, die Kontextrelationen nicht nur über Selbstpositionierungen und den Lebensmittelpunkt einer Person erfasst, sondern die auch implizite Lagerungsähnlichkeiten rekonstruiert. Mit Hilfe (trans-)nationaler Vergleichsstrategien analysiert der Beitrag das komplexe Verhältnis von Personen zu (trans-)nationalen ungleichheitsrelevanten Kontexten und die daraus resultierenden Lebenschancen.

Abstract:

AbstractGlobalization and contemporary international labour migration continue to transform women’s lives. Moreover, gender stereotypes, biased cultural norms, biological responsibilities and economic marginalization serve to constrain women disproportionately, particularly mothers. Indeed, globalization and migration increases existing pressures associated with motherhood. They intensify societal expectations of women, and often result in extreme distress. Many transnational mothers suffer in silence with little or no chance to share their stories and be heard. This study explores the experiences of Jamaican transnational mothers in New York City and documents their stories in light of current research which investigates how transnational motherhood transgresses gender stereotypes and pushes the boundaries of gender roles and expectations. The stories shared in this paper vividly capture the women’s narratives of loss, longing, empowerment and shared responsibilities across borders.

Abstract:

Abstract Early migration scholarship on the transnational family has tended to portray stay-behind children as passive recipients of care and helpless victims of transnational migration. Despite the increasing sophistication of the literature highlighting children's active roles, empirical studies on transnational families focusing on understanding children's changing agency through time are still limited. We aim to fill this lacuna by offering a longitudinal perspective on children's changing agency in using communication technologies. Focusing on the “transition to adulthood” experiences of Filipino and Indonesian stay-behind children (from 9–11 years old to 17–19 years old), we examine how their agentic behavior and practices change in using information and communication technologies to negotiate power and autonomy within the transnational family. We show how the changes in the children's specific life course and the shifting digital divide that accompany these transitions shape the possibilities and limits to children's empowerment and agency in enacting family transnationally.

Abstract:

Economic migrations are a phenomenon that extends to many Polish families, causing changes in their structure and functioning. The effects of migration that affect the lives of children and young people brought up in transnational families seem to be particularly important. Children from transnational families have specific family experiences because they are related to the economic migration of one of the parents, which is associated with his longer absence. The motives for the trip, time of separation, and everyday life in each transnational family are different, therefore children from these families have various life experiences and create images of family life in various ways.

Abstract:

Despite the rise in displaced population numbers, refugees’ transnational lives, and those of sexual-racial minority refugees in particular, have remained at the margins of transnational migration studies. In this article, I focus on the case of gay Iranian refugees in Canada and analyze their pre-migration transnational lives and understandings of the asylum process, their post-migration transnational ties, and their activism practices. I underline refugees’ transnational agencies and argue against the rhetoric that represents refugees as passive migrants whose emigration means detachment from home countries. Based on my field work findings, I endorse analytical and methodological shifts to simultaneously explore refugees’ pre-migration and en-route lives in addition to their post-migration lives to stress the power relations that, through social ties, affect refugees’ transnational practices. I connect transnational, forced, and queer migration literature to the Bourdieusian social theory and, in conclusion, argue that it is necessary to deploy de-nationalized methods of inquiry to account for intra-group diversities as well as border-crossing social ties in addition to economic ties.

Abstract:

Purpose Globalisation provides new opportunities for immigrant women to supply financial benefits transnationally to uphold their families in their home countries. The purpose of this study is to explore the experiences of Thai immigrant women regarding transnational family responsibilities effects on their health and wellness. Design/methodology/approach Qualitative data were collected using semi-structured interviews with 40 Thai immigrant women, of which 34 described having transnational family responsibilities. The transcribed data were analysed using a phenomenographic approach. Findings The findings revealed five structural aspects of transnational family responsibilities of Thai immigrant women: being a dutiful daughter, being a caring mother, being a kind relative, being a “giving” person and striving for a wealthy life. The interviewees seldom encountered enough support from the spouse in handling their transnational family responsibilities. In general, a transnational marriage includes family responsibilities that are continuous and that often is the cause of migration. Practical implications This paper illuminates the transnational responsibilities of marriage migration and argues for women’s rights of culturally congruent health care. Originality/value Traditionally Thai women’s values are based on how they handle family responsibilities and acknowledging own health needs are not. These interviewees perceived doubled burden in terms of family responsibilities and workload in employed work, which contributed to poor health and wellness.

Abstract:

In their efforts to seek employment and income abroad, these days, people leave their place of origin and move to new places through transnational migration. In that sense, transnational migration can be taken as liberating or escaping from the existing context. While looking at certain inherent procedures of transnational migration, it can be questioned whether people can escape from their social and cultural web and conditions through this process. In this sense, transnational migration reinstates and reflects prevailing social norms and values concerning gender, class, and well-being. On top of this, based on ethnographic information, this paper also highlights the process that reflects their embodied experience of border crossing, and thus transnational migration embodies the process of gender and a particular kind of self.

Abstract:

This paper explores the consequences of international migration on family relationships of elderly migrants from a new perspective: It compares intergenerational relationships among migrants from Turkey who live in Europe with those among non-migrants who never went abroad and, as a third group, transnational families. This study draws from the international LineUp Survey “Migration Histories of Turks in Europe”. Dependent variables are the frequency of contact, mutual support exchange patterns and family values as reported by the adult children. Findings indicate more intense intergenerational relationships in migrant families as compared to families in Turkey, but lower agreement with norms on intergenerational solidarity among the former. Whereas differences in behavior can be explained almost completely by compositional differences, multivariate analyses suggest persisting divergences in attitudes. Transnational families show the lowest degree of intergenerational solidarity which can be explained by the large spatial distance. By tendency, the findings indicate a change in values, but overall continuity in behavior patterns in the course of an international migration. Zusammenfassung Dieser Beitrag nähert sich der Frage nach den Auswirkungen einer internationalen Migration auf die Generationenbeziehungen älterer Menschen aus einer neuen Perspektive: Verglichen werden die Beziehungen in türkeistämmigen Familien in Westeuropa mit Familien in der Türkei sowie, als dritte Gruppe, transnationalen Familien. Die Datengrundlage bildet die internationale LineUp- Studie „Migration Histories of Turks in Europe“. Zielvariablen sind familienbezogene Werteinstellungen sowie Kontakthäufigkeit und gegenseitige Unterstützungsleistungen aus Sicht der erwachsenen Kinder. Migrantenfamilien zeigen in den Verhaltensmustern intensivere Beziehungen als Familien in der Türkei, allerdings stellen diese Unterschiede nahezu vollständig Kompositionseffekte dar. Unterschiede in den Werteeinstellungen, mit geringerer normativer Solidarität in Migrantenfamilien, bleiben dagegen auch in multivariaten Analysen tendenziell bestehen. Transnationale Familien weisen die geringste Generationensolidarität auf, was auf die große Wohnentfernung zurückzuführen ist. Die Befunde geben tendenziell Hinweise auf einen Wertewandel in der Migration bei weitgehender Kontinuität der Verhaltensmuster.

Abstract:

Given that care duties are central to the definition of motherhood across contexts, an extended separation from the woman’s family due to migration presents a major threat to her social identity as a mother and wife. Drawing on West and Zimmerman’s notion of “doing gender” and ethnographic research on Vietnamese low-waged contract workers in Taiwan, I provide vital insights into the discursive processes and everyday practices that underlie migrant women’s negotiations of motherhood and femininity. Specifically, I examine the various ways migrant women perform and negotiate meanings of hy sinh (self-sacrifice) and chịu đựng (endurance) that are core values of Vietnamese womanhood. Combating the stigma of bad motherhood and failed femininity, I emphasize, is not just about reasserting one’s sense of gendered self but also about reassuring her access to the future support and care of the family. The study emphasizes intentionality and pragmatism in women’s social doings of gender and highlights moral dilemmas in gender politics.

Abstract:

Research on international retirement migration has so far focused on quantitative measures of migration, migrants' wellbeing, reasons for migration and consequences of migration in the receiving areas, while paying scant attention to the transnational experiences of the migrants. Research on transnational forms of living, on the other hand, has largely ignored the life projects of retirees. This paper tries to bridge that gap, by investigating experiences of transnational mobility, multiple place attachment and cultural differences among Swedish retirees pursuing seasonal migration between Sweden and Spain. Qualitative interviews were made with 46 respondents who spent at least three months per year in each country. The analysis of the interviews produced three ideal-typical transnational lifestyles: translocal normality, multilocal adaptation and routinised sojourning. These lifestyles reflect different strategies for managing cultural difference, but also different forms and aspects of place attachment and different ideals of mobility.

Abstract:

Transnational migration to Japan has been developing since the 1980s, despite the fact that the Japanese government has officially denied accepting ‘immigrants’ and maintained a rigid immigration control policy over the years. This contradiction produced multiple gates of entry for migrants and led to the fragmentation of transnational networks of human movement. The neoliberal transformation of Japanese labor markets began in the mid-1990s, and migrant labor played a pivotal role in its restructuring. Sociologists have been dedicated to the analysis of the unique structures of the transnational supply chains and the surrounding constellations of interests in each labor market. Researchers have also identified the emergence of diverse ethnic entrepreneurs beyond their ethnic enclaves and across national borders, while other researchers have examined the structural constraints facing highly skilled workers in Japan. Recently, this transnational structure has been extended to include reproductive spheres of labor allowing the incorporation of nurses, care workers, and domestic workers as migrant workers. Beneath the diversity of types of transnational networks, Japanese sociologists have documented the increasing influence of the migration industry in the commercialization of transnational mobilities.

Abstract:

This paper discusses the paucity of scholarship on contemporary British international migration experience, and highlights why British nations are viewed as beyond detailed international migration and transnational scholarship. Resisting this closure, discussion invokes a transnational lens to explore three flows: post-war migration of British citizens to traditional destinations; British retirement migration to the Mediterranean; and British professional migration. The paper adds its voice to a growing body of work that argues for a widening of the migration agenda to include qualitative work and a transnational approach to enable British migratory experience to be fully investigated.

Abstract:

With rising globalization and professionalization within sports, athletes are increasingly migrating across national borders to take up work, and their athletic and nonathletic development is thereby shaped and lived in different countries. Through the analysis of interviews with female professional transnational athletes, this article contextualizes and discusses arguments for developing an interdisciplinary framework to account for lived experiences of the close intertwining between transnational migration and career development in professional sports. By combining our psychological and sociological perspectives, we identify three normative career transitions for transnational athletes. First of all, transnational recruitment that draws on social networks as well as individual agency. Secondly, establishment as a transnational athlete that is connected to cultural and psychological adaptation as well as development of transnational belonging, and thirdly, professional athletic career termination that for transnational athletes is connected to a (re)constitution of one’s transnational network and sense of belonging.

Abstract:

Rural Oaxacan migrants are defined as quintessential transnational movers, people who access rich social networks as they move between rural hometowns in southern Mexico and the urban centers of southern California. The social and cultural ties that characterize Oaxacan movers are critical to successful migrations, lead to jobs and create a sense of belonging and shared identity. Nevertheless, migration has socio-cultural, economic and psychological costs. To move the discussion away from a framework that emphasizes the positive transnational qualities of movement we focus on the costs of migration for Oaxacans from the state’s central valleys and Sierra regions.

Abstract:

The global movement of people which coincided with the globalization of the market economy resulted into the feminization of overseas migrate, on given the higher demands for female migrant workers from the low-income developing countries such as the Philippines. This has changed the landscape of overseas migration in the country since the 1970s where the bulk of overseas migrant workers were males as triggered by the oil boom in the Middle East (Ducanes, 2015). This paper examines the social dimension of transnational migration as experienced by Filipina overseas migrant returnees by understanding the motivations for temporary overseas migration, the factors associated with return migration, their narratives of transnational migration and their self-assessment of the impact of migration on their well-being. Qualitative interviews were conducted among seven (7) Filipina migrant returnees from Nueva Ecija. Results revealed the interplay of gender, migration and family in relation to push and pull migration. Likewise, the transnational experiences of these migrant returnees demonstrate the resiliency and agency of women in the context of development and transnational migration.

Abstract:

This article addresses the issue of Nepali transnationals’ search for home as depicted in Govinda Raj Bhattarai’s novel Muglan. The novel presents three types of transnationals as its characters: diasporans, transnational mobiles and transnational outsiders. Throughout the life, all of them go on searching for a home that can provide them comfort, security and peace of mind. But none of the characters can achieve it. The novel presents the reality of Nepali transnational migration that is continued for centuries. For the analysis of the characters and their condition and consequences, the theories of transnationalism and diaspora have been used. Janine Dahinden’s idea of three types of transnational migrants and Steven Vertovec’s discussion on the practice of cultural diaspora have been the main theoretical bases for this study. Both of the theorists claim that the transnationals leave their homeland with the motive of making their home back in the land of origin better than that of the time they leave it. Throughout their stay in the host land, they try to achieve their goal sacrificing everything they have. Some of them try to find their dream home even in the host land. But finally, they cannot achieve their dream in the reality. So, the transnationals remain homeless throughout. Bhattarai’s Muglan gives fictio-realistic expression to this theoretical claim.

Abstract:

This article examines the history of Asian migration and exclusion in the Americas by focusing on the intersections of national histories, transnational migration, and the globality of race. Beginning in the mid-nineteenth century, a transnational conversation about race, migration, and national security circulated throughout North and South America. The subject was the global migration of Asians and the alleged threat they posed. By examining the circularity of Asian migration within the Americas as well as the transnational nature of anti-Asian racism, this article seeks to revise our understandings of transnationalism and contribute to the larger global history of race.

Abstract:

We investigate the relationship between transnational terrorism and the restrictiveness of immigration policies. We argue that transnational terrorism may create incentives for governments to implement more restrictive migration policies. First, more restrictive policies may make terrorism a more costly endeavor, discouraging future terrorist activity. Second, voters may hold the government accountable for the increased insecurity and economic instability terrorism produces; more restrictive migration policies may signal political resolve and meet public demand for security-providing policies, consequently reducing the government’s chances of electoral defeat. We provide an empirical analysis of the effect of transnational terrorism on migration policy restrictiveness for a sample of 30 OECD countries between 1980 and 2010. We find that a greater exposure to transnational terrorism is associated with stricter migration controls, but not stricter migration regulations regarding eligibility criteria and conditions. This finding is robust to different model specifications, estimation methods, operationalizations of terrorism, and instrumental-variable approaches. It points to the securitization of immigration, providing partial support for the notion that transnational terrorism incentivizes migration policy change towards greater restrictiveness. However, the policy response appears to be surgical (affecting only migration controls) rather than sweeping (and thus not influencing broader migration regulations) for the countries in our sample.

Abstract:

In the recent Central American migrations spurred by violence, political instability, and economic insecurity, women grapple with whether and when to bring their children with them in pursuit of safety in another country, and with fulfilling their roles as mothers from afar. Drawing from the transnational motherhood literature and critical feminist theories, this interpretive qualitative study examined transnational motherhood grounded in the lived experiences of Central American women (n = 19) over the course of their migrations to the US. Informed by the principles of grounded theory, the inductive analysis identified five processes in which migration and violence shaped meanings of motherhood: risking everything, embodying separation, braving reunification, mothering others, and experiencing motherhood due to sexual violence. The findings contribute knowledge of how violence shapes and informs women’s migrations and decision-making, and the consequences women endure in taking action to mitigate threats of violence in their own and their children’s lives. The analysis furthermore highlights the specific and profound effects of family separation on mothers. The voices, perspectives, and experiences of migrating mothers and the ways in which migration and violence shapes notions and lived experiences of motherhood are imperative to research, practice, and advocacy to change oppressive immigration policies.

Abstract:

This special issue seeks to enrich readers’ understandings of the transnational family practices and relations of selected migrant groups of a predominantly Muslim background in a number of Western contexts. It presents theoretically and empirically grounded studies that investigate how these family practices and ties are transnationally shaped, navigated and experienced by different family members. It focuses on two aspects of family life: marriage and the second generation’s aspirations and transnational experiences. Under the first theme, this special issue examines how marriage, migration and kinship interplay in transnationally shaped social fields where multiple legal and normative systems intersect in the lives of migrants. With regards to the second theme, the issue investigates how the children of migrants navigate and experience transnational family norms, ties and practices. Throughout the issue, individual articles shed light on the gendered dimensions of the different family practices and experiences.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to outline how refugees’ transnational networks and online relationships facilitated through social media provide access to timely and trusted translated information in disaster settings. Design/methodology/approach The study is a digital ethnography of resettled refugees’ practices of transnational care and support through social media that took place over 12 months. It involved conducting 50 semi-structured interviews and collecting 472 online social media diaries with 15 participants. Data analysis was conducted through constructivist grounded theory. Findings Transnational networks are increasingly part of refugees’ everyday lives that illustrate how social media platforms can provide forms of transnational care and access to trusted translated communications during times of crisis. The paper discusses the possibilities and cautions of such support. Research limitations/implications The small number of participants limits the ability to make generalised claims about refugees and transnational possibilities for reducing disaster risk. However, the reality that social media effectively provide a bridge between “here” and “there” signals the importance of incorporating these considerations as a form of transnational disaster risk reduction. Practical implications The project highlights from policy and practice standpoints, how transnational networks and social media can be used to improve disaster communications and translation. This focus is achieved through examining the usability, accessibility and affordability of digital communication technologies for forced migrants. Originality/value Few studies focus on refugees and disaster risk reduction. This is particularly the case as it relates to the roles of transnational networks, which have increasing everyday interactions in countries that provide refugee resettlement programmes.

Abstract:

In classical Khmer dance dramas, the fluidity of gestural and choreographic movement is complemented by the seamlessness with which mythical figures move between the realms of sky, earth, and sea. Such mythical migrations have been the subject of Khmer dance dramas for centuries. In this essay I explore the recent development and performance of one specific danced story of migration and the performers' social realities that complicate their relationship to their art and to this story in particular. I discuss transnational migration's impact on current and future possibilities for Khmer classical dance, and the lessons Cambodia's female dancers take from the fluidity, adaptability, and flexibility required of Khmer choreography as they negotiate their immediate social, cultural, and political upheavals.

Abstract:

By focusing on the relations of intimacy between migrant wives working in Singapore and their left-behind husbands living in the Philippines, this article investigates how transnational couples negotiate the liminalities and temporariness embedded in the experience of labour migration. Using the timescales of migration as a conceptual frame, the article analyses the mutual, if uneven, shaping of marital relationships at the micro-timescale of transnational family time and the meso-timescale of Singapore’s labour migration regime. It focuses on how ‘doing family’ across distance is centrally facilitated through the affordances of communication technologies to create rhythms and manage ruptures. These technologies are crucial in (re)making domestic family time in the transnational household. The way the micro-temporalities of transnational family life are reorganised works in tension with how couples negotiate liminal conditions imposed by Singapore’s work permit and pass system. The article argues that temporariness and precarity, which deter the imagination of a stable future, are constantly negotiated in the lives of the transnational family through different temporal strategies. By bracketing off intense emotions and downplaying ruptures in relationships, the transnational family is able to focus on their future aspirations of achieving their projects through migration. As migration timelines are indefinitely extended and family separation is prolonged, the transnational family strives to endure through these strategies of (re)making their temporalities.

Abstract:

Focusing on student migration from Bulgaria to Germany, this article examines what types of social capital are accumulated, transformed and implemented through migration, who profits from the investment, and how. The empirical work consists of 60 narrative biographical interviews with migrants and returnees to Bulgaria. The research reveals that the accumulation and investment of social capital takes place throughout the migratory trajectory—starting well before leaving—and is embedded in a transnational social space. Transnational networks exist as family, peer and professional networks, and all of them have a specific meaning for the migrants. Family networks are naturally present; they provide bonding social capital and thus have a stabilizing function for the individual’s identity. Professional networks have a strongly bridging function, helping the young migrants to manage status transitions. After return the transnational social capital acquired during the migratory stay helps returnees to re-integrate and find their way into the Bulgarian labour market. It also encourages them to pursue activities which are meaningful for civil society development, or for innovative (social) entrepreneurship. Thus, transnational social capital helps migrants to align their biographical development to the future, considering the post-transformative environment of Bulgaria, thereby helping to manage transformative changes and supporting societal modernization processes.
