The aim of the article is to investigate the issue of transnational family networks and informal social protection among Turkish migrants living in Germany. By sharing not only emotional and personal matters, but also goods, services, social activities and financial remittances, transnational family networks extend beyond the households of origin to members of the extended families in other countries. The investigation of the ties among transnational families reveals the relationships between migration and informal social protection strategies of migrants that are an integral part of their crossborder social practices. This article examines the protective strategies of Turkish migrants in Germany and their family members in Turkey and Europe. Drawing upon twenty qualitative interviews and ego-centric social network maps collected in Germany, this article illustrates how protective resources flow across borders.
