Sinopsis

With ever-increasing globalization, the challenges that social support will face in the future can no longer be addressed solely within national contexts. As a variety of studies implicitly shows, transnationalism is associated with specific and manifold forms of social support. Yet research that systematically locates transnational social support at the center of analysis is just at its beginning.

This publication addresses transnational social support from both a theoretical and an empirical research perspective. Its overall aim is to contribute to the introduction of a transnational perspective in the academic discipline and professional field of social work. Transnational approaches can extend and transform the conventional nationally-bounded approaches to both knowledge and practice. The aim is to incorporate a transnational dimension in the very knowledge structure of social work. Gathering together authors from around the world, this text offers perspectives for social work theory and practice that transcend nation states.
