Technology and Transnational Habitus. Online Communication in Migration Networks of Foreign Students

Summary/Abstract: Research on the use of new technologies in migration processes (digital migration studies) has been conducted in various contexts. One of them is communication, which – for people in mobility – remains of particular importance. The use of technology in communication can supports establishing / maintaining relationships with members of both the society of origin and the host society, becoming an element of the transnational migratory habitus. The aim of the article is to present the issues of using technology in migrant communication, taking into account the context of social migratory networks, in which, also in the virtual sphere, we can identify weak and strong ties (bridges and bonds) that constitute social migration capital. The information presented in the article refers to the results of the quantitative study carried out as part of own research in 2018 among Ukrainian students in Lublin.
