| Through the migration process, migrants as well as communities with which they maintain relations, come into contact with different ideas, new income earning possibilities, and new knowledge. As a consequence, economic principles that guide economic behavior change, get adapted, and mix. This, in turn, influences paths of local economic development. This research project questions how economic principles guiding economic action in urban communities of origin of Ghanaian migrants in the Netherlands are affected by transnational networks spanning both the country of origin and the host country. |
