The article has its origin in the attempt to connect the micro – level (life strategy, more precisely than international migration for work), the meso – level (the community, the place where changes due to the consequences of migration take place), and the macro – level (which at first allows for the appearance of migration, and secondly is influenced by its consequences). The hypotheses try to connect international migration to the changes of communities of the migrants. Migration can be looked at as having a latent function that leads to changes in communities and further to development, maximizing the resources from the individual level, and modifying the behavior. Thus, the consequences have to do with entrepreneurship as a main life strategy that leads to transnational migration. This is an improved version of an article that was originally published in the Romanian Sociology (no. 2/2004).
