This chapter develops the idea of a transnational social field through ethnographic accounts of practices that maintain links and a coherent social field over large distances. The chapter focuses on British Bangladeshi attitudes to and practices of marriage, communications technology and visits to Bangladesh. It describes and analyses practices and activities that both produce and are produced by transnational identities. It examines how transnationalism is changing over time and how transnationalism has transformed societies.
