Kuvaus:More than 270 million people live in countries other than that of their birth. These people access social services, take care of family members, save money for their pensions and contribute to public debates. However, we know little of how these people organize their social protection: how do they deal with social risks as migrants moving across borders? In this article, we argue for the necessity of an academic agenda on transnational social protection, especially in the Global South. This agenda should focus on migrants’ capacity of dealing with social risks on both sides of national borders. For that purpose, we discuss key lessons from different bodies of literature, and we propose an analytical framework while arguing for a mixed-methods research agenda.
