Resumen
MOCTEZUMA LONGORIA, Miguel. Transnationality and transnationalism. Pap. poblac [online]. 2008, vol.14, n.57, pp.39-64. ISSN 2448-7147.
This essay approaches transnationalism with an analysis perspective that gathers and questions theoretical approaches, such as structuralist and functionalist positivism materialized in the assimilationalist and aculturalist models of migration. Transnationalism appeared as a term in the field of political economy of the XIX century to describe the private corporations that had large financial operations as well as an organizational and administrative presence in several countries; today it is identified with the practices of migrants, networks of social relation and filial communities which are beyond the national borders. Here it is postulated that transnationalism and transnationality require advancing in their classification, shortening their reaches and limiting the role these and other related phenomena related to the topic of international migration have.
