Rodzina migracyjna w perspektywie transnarodowej
Szyszka, Małgorzata (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 2020)
The aim of the article is to discuss the functioning of transnational families through the perspective of the transnational perspective. This new approach to families separated by international migration underlines the importance of two features: the spatial separation of family members and a sense of community. Thus, the consequences of international migration are not considered as a crisis, but as a new reality changing the quality of family life. The article discusses the new organization of family life in transnational families. It points out the importance of family practices for building family life. The family practices are processual, fluid and adapted to the needs of family members. They are embedded in daily rituals and confirm “familyhood even across distance.” Parental roles are also changing. They are redefined and reorganized. New parenting (distance parenting) involves continuing to care for children and building emotional closeness, despite spatial distance.
