一本关于家庭国际移民的书非常受欢迎。虽然家庭流动是欧洲移民的重要组成部分，但这方面的研究仍然相对较少。家庭社会学对移徙家庭不太感兴趣，或者从民族国家的角度作为主要观察单位来研究。维默和格利克-席勒将这种方法定义为“方法论的民族主义”，包括一种限制形式，无法捕捉家庭迁移或生活在边境以外的情况。在移徙社会学方面，只是最近才对移徙家庭和跨国家庭给予更多的注意。这本经过编辑的书有14份个人来稿和一个一般性导言，无疑是对更好地理解家庭与国际移徙之间关系的重要投入，同时也考虑到性别和代际层面。导言一章论证了家庭移徙问题日益受到重视的许多原因。该清单并非详尽无遗，但它提出了若干相关问题。第一，家庭流动和跨界家庭结构日益多样化，这与生活在同一家庭中的“经典”核心家庭有很大不同。第二，家庭团聚政策，这是大多数欧洲国家移民的主要法律的方式之一，及其最近的限制。与此相关，作者指出，通过建立共同标准和从一个国家到另一个国家的政策扩散，家庭移民政策欧洲化。其中一些是开放的政策，例如接受类似婚姻的关系，如同居和同性伴侣关系作为统一的基础。这些政策反映了
A book about international migration of families is more than welcome. Although family flows are a significant part of migrations in Europe, research in this area is still relatively scarce. Family sociology has not been much interested in migrant families, or has studied them from the perspective of the nation-State, as the main unit of observation. Wimmer and Glick–Schiller have defined this approach as ‘methodological nationalism’, including a form of limitation, unable to catch the circumstances of families moving or living across borders. On the side of the sociology of migrations, more attention has been granted only recently to migrant families and to transnational families. This edited volume, with 14 individual contributions and a general introduction constitutes, no doubt, an important input to a better understanding of the relationship between families and international migration, taking also into account gender and intergenerational dimensions. The introductory chapter argues the many reasons for the increased attention given to family migration. The list is not exhaustive, but it raises several relevant issues. First, the increasing diversification of family circulation and of family configurations across borders, which are very different from the ‘classical’nuclear family living in the same household. Second, family reunification policies, one of the main legal ways of immigration in most European countries, and its recent restriction. Related to that, the authors point out the Europeanisation of family immigration policies through established common standards and policy diffusion from one country to another. Some of these are policies of openness, such as the fact of accepting relationships akin to marriage, like cohabitation and same-sex partnership as basis for reunification. These policies reflect tensions between
