520    A growing number of people - immigrants, refugees, asylum-
       seekers, displaced individuals, and families - lead lives 
       that transcend national boundaries. Often because of 
       economic pressures, these individuals continually move 
       through places, countries, and cultures, becoming exposed 
       to unique risk and protective factors. Though migration 
       itself has existed for centuries, the availability of fast
       and cheap transportation as well as today's sophisticated 
       technologies and electronic communications have allowed 
       transmigrants to develop transnational identities and 
       relationships, as well as engage in transnational 
       activities. Yet despite this new reality, social work has 
       yet to establish the parameters of a transnational social 
       work practice. In one of the first volumes to address 
       social work practice with this emergent and often 
       marginalized population, practitioners and scholars 
       specializing in transnational issues develop a framework 
       for transnational social work practice. They begin with 
       the historical and environmental context of transnational 
       practice and explore the psychosocial, economic, 
       environmental, and political factors that affect at-risk 
       and vulnerable transnational groups. They then detail 
       practical strategies, supplemented with case examples, for
       working with transnational populations utilizing this 
       population's existing strengths. They conclude with 
       recommendations for incorporating transnational social 
       work into the curriculum.
