Abstract
ABSTRACT Our goal is twofold: to contribute to conceptualizing social remittances and to shed new light on who the most important agents of change are. Using data from our own questionnaire surveys, carried out with Moldovan migrants in Prague, Czechia (N = 203) and Turin, Italy (N = 206) in 2017–2018, we applied classification and regression trees analysis. In addition to defining three types of social remittances—interpersonal communication–based, project-oriented, and return-tied remittances—we found that geographical context and migrants’ characteristics—namely, educational level, language abilities, socio-legality of residence, and satisfaction with life—variously influence the transfer of social remittances.
