Transnationalism cover

'Transnationalism' refers to multiple ties and interactions linking people or institutions across the borders of nation-states.

This book surveys the broader meanings of transnationalism within the study of globalization before concentrating on migrant transnational practices. Each chapter demonstrates ways in which new and contemporary transnational practices of migrants are fundamentally transforming social, political and economic structures simultaneously within homelands and places of settlement.


Transnationalism

provides a much-needed single, clear and condensed text concerning a major concept in academic and policy discourse today.

The book is for advanced undergraduate students, postgraduates and academics.

Transnationalism belongs to a Routledge series called Key Ideas, which intends to provide critically written books dealing with a variety of topics that are central in the realm of social science. And indeed, Vertovec is successful in communicating to his audience in a lively manner the key ideas surrounding the concept of transnationalism.
