It uses large scale, representative data about first and second generation immigrants in Germany. It develops a formal theoretical model, which explains both transnational involvement and paths of immigrant integration. Important questions are answered: What consequences does transnational involvement have on integration? Is transnational involvement a distinct form of integration? Is it an alternative to assimilation? Does it hinder or facilitate assimilation? Longitudinal analyses are presented which show that immigrant integration and transnational involvement do not necessarily oppose each other. The book shows that although low levels of integration may coincide with strong transnational ties, the relationship is not causal. This book shows how immigrant integration and transnational involvement are related to each other and how a joint examination of both processes may advance our understanding of the general dynamics of migration and integration. 410 0$aInternational Perspectives on Migration,$x2214-9805 ;$v8 606 $aEmigration and immigration 606 $aSociology 606 $aStatistics  606 $aMigration$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X24000 606 $aSociology, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22000 606 $aStatistics for Social Sciences, Humanities, Law$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/S17040 607 $aGermany$xEmigration and immigration$xSocial aspects 615 0$aEmigration and immigration. 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aStatistics . 615 14$aMigration. 615 24$aSociology, general. 615 24$aStatistics for Social Sciences, Humanities, Law. 676 $a305.9069120943 700 $aSchunck$b Reinhard$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01225525 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483961203321 996 $aTransnational Activities and Immigrant Integration in Germany$92845366 997 $aUNINA
