The term of transnationalism has become increasingly
widespread notion in many academic disciplines since
1980s. Although it has been articulated in a
systematic way for the first time by anthropologists
in order to indicate the symptoms of the probable
rupture of identity from geography in international
migration studies, it seems that political scientists
have currently appropriated the term more than
anthropologists and sociologists. I intend to show
here, based on an empirical study, that the concept
of transnationalism still has a utility for examining
migration phenomena from a sociological perspective.
It is simply a practical concept to examine
institutional macro and non-institutional micro level
power relations in migrants’ everyday life.
This book aims at making a critical evaluation of
transnational theories used in international
migration studies by focusing on the transnational
social fields established by Turkish migrants in
Berlin in terms of socio-economic status, gender and
generation. It should be especially useful to
researchers and scholars who study on international
migration, migrant integration and transnationalism.
