It has made particularly strong contributions to immigration studies and holds great promise for deepening insights into international migration.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is the first book to provide an accessible yet rigorous overview of transnational migration, as experienced by family and kinship groups, networks of entrepreneurs, diasporas and immigrant associations. As well as defining the core concept, it explores the implications of transnational migration for immigrant integration and its relationship to assimilation. By examining its political, economic, social, and cultural dimensions, the authors capture the distinctive features of the new immigrant communities that have reshaped the ethno-cultural mix of receiving nations, including the US and Western Europe. Importantly, the book also examines the effects of transnationality on sending communities, viewing migrants as agents of political and economic development.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis systematic and critical overview of transnational migration perfectly balances theoretical discussion with relevant examples and cases, making it an ideal book for upper-level students covering immigration and transnational relations on sociology, political science, and globalization courses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Faist, Margit Fauser, Eveline Reisenauer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Polity Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/18\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 210\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.90w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780745649771\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThomas Faist\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of transnational, development and migration studies at the Bielefeld University, Germany. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMargit Fauser\u003c\/b\u003e is a researcher in the department of sociology at Bielefeld University, Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEveline Reisenauer\u003c\/b\u003e is a researcher in the department of sociology at Bielefeld University, Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Polity Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":40524064948339,"sku":"9.78075E+12","price":123.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_06e7534c-f941-4da6-a81f-9cbf41d87ac7.jpg?v=1666185613","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/transnational-migration-9780745649771","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
