Special Issue: Transnational Family Research – Methodological Challenges
(Guest Editor: Viorela Ducu)
During the last decade, research in the field of transnational families has intensified, and therewith the methodological approach to this subject has become more complex and diverse in capturing the various aspects of the thematic. In this issue we wish to gather researcher experiences in what concerns the methodological challenges they confronted while researching within the field of trasnational families. On the one hand, we want to capture new trends in the field, on the other, to make this special issue become a source of inspiration for scholars who wish to project new research designs for the field.
