    • Abstract:
      Through chasing the idea of family reunification, this article explores the movements of one Peruvian family through different continents. In doing so, it examines how different conceptions of space play integral roles in the constant reshaping of translocal social networks. In concentrating on Madrid, Spain, this article sheds light on how seemingly localized everyday spaces are often negotiated with community members in other urban centers throughout the globe. Lastly, with a focus on the everyday struggles and successes of individuals, families, and communities, this article examines how a household imagines their "being in the world".

    • Abstract:
      Cet article, en chassant l'idée de la réunification familiale, explore les mouvements d'une famille péruvienne à travers les différents continents. Dans ce procès, il examine comment les différentes conceptions de l'espace jouent un rôle intégral dans le remodelage constant des réseaux sociaux trans-locaux. En se concentrant sur Madrid, Espagne, cet article met en lumière la façon dont des espaces quotidiens apparemment localisées sont souvent négociés avec les membres de la communauté dans d'autres centres urbains à travers le monde. Enfin, avec un accent sur les efforts et les réussites quotidiennes des individus et communautés, cet article examine comment de diverses familles imaginent leur « être dans le monde ».
