An article written by Alvaro Lima, the BRA's Director of Research titled, "Transnationalism: What it Means to Local Communities," is featured in the Winter 2010, Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, Communities & Banking. Much has been written about transnational immigrants -people who move to a new country but keep strong economic, social, and political connections with their countries of origin. Not enough has been understood, however, about transnationals' contribution to their local communities.
