Abstract

This chapter reviews research on the functioning of migrant networks and identifies analytic issues that require focused attention in order to specify the impact of migrant networks on migration systems. Two sets of literature are used. The first consists of work conducted on migration networks...that raises questions and calls for specification of the range of mechanisms through which networks influence both the shape and magnitude of migration flows and the nature of evolution of both the origin and destination communities....The second body of literature consists of work on social networks from contexts other than migration. The geographical scope is worldwide. (EXCERPT)
