Descripción: Examines the structuration process of transnational income-seeking travels of Poles in the 3 stages considered by Massey et al. in their assessment of different theoretical models of migration: the triggering of international movement; its expansion and persistence, and its effects on the sending society. Argues that the conceptualization of transnational migration as a structuration process improves on Massey et al.'s work by elaborating analytically the categories of social structure and human agency; clarifying the theoretical status of symbolic formations and their causal significance in shaping the flows, purposes, and strategies of international migration; and accommodating in one theoretical framework the reciprocal influences of migrants' purposeful activities and home and host societal structures. The treatment of transnational migration by a mainstream social theory such as the structuration model also contributes to the incorporation of this phenomenon into the mainstream agenda of sociological inquiry as a core social process in the global world.
