Superdiversität erforscht die zunehmenden Diversifizierungsprozesse und die hochkomplexen sozialen Konfigurationen, durch die frühere Formen der Vielfalt in unseren modernen Gesellschaften nochmals potenziert werden. Migration spielt bei diesen Prozessen eine Schlüsselrolle, wie der international führende Soziologe Steven Vertovec in diesem bahnbrechenden Buch zeigt. Sie bringt nicht nur Veränderungen in allen sozialen, kulturellen, religiösen und sprachlichen Bereichen mit sich, sondern auch in der Art und Weise, wie diese mit Faktoren wie Geschlecht, Alter und...

'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...
