ABSTRACT
Globalization is a completely riven and fragmented process. It is true that its effects on the social life of all of humanity can no longer be denied, but the way different groups are absorbed by the globalization processes or are affected by it varies quite considerably. Processes of transnationalization are closely coupled with the syndromes of globalization, as individual networks expand within them, individual mobility increases, and cross-border and cross-culture interaction become common. We know that social networks as well as mobility can be understood as individual resources. Individuals can establish a new position within social and geographic space by mobility. Networks can become effective as social capital: They provide social and emotional support, let people participate in the flow of information, and facilitate access to other lifeworlds. These qualities also have an effect on the process of transnationalization, as the behavioral repertoire of relocation, traveling, and transnational communication enable individuals to relocate and flexibly position themselves.
