Abstract
Migration creates complex webs of relationships between migrants in their place of residence and their relatives, friends and acquaintances living in their communities of origin and other places. Through these networks, ideas, information, services, money and goods circulate, which have a strong impact on future migrations, individual wellbeing, and the economies and politics of the involved communities. A new study conducted by researchers of the GRAFO research group and Pennsylvania State University systematizes the different methodologies that have been adopted to study this transnational reality and reviews their contributions.
