In this paper, we explore the social theory and consequent methodology that underpins studies of transnational migration. We propose a social field approach to the study of migration, and distinguish between ways of being and ways of belonging in that field. We argue that assimilation and enduring t...

description In this paper, we explore the social theory and consequent methodology that underpins studies of transnational migration. We propose a social field approach to the study of migration, and distinguish between ways of being and ways of belonging in that field. We argue that assimilation and enduring transnational ties are neither incompatible nor binary opposites. We highlight social processes and institutions that are routinely obscured by traditional migration scholarship but become opened up to analytical scrutiny by using a transnational lens. We locate our approach to migration research within a larger intellectual project, undertaken by scholars of transnational processes in many fields, to rethink and reformulate the concept of society such that it is no longer automatically equated with the boundaries of a single Nation–state
