  Article:   TRANSNATIONAL MIGRATION AND POST-SOCIALIST PROLETARIANISATION IN A RURAL ROMANIAN PROVINCE.

Authors:  . 		 
       
         
  Abstract:   The aim of the article is to explain the amplitude of transnational migration and of the strong social competition of one of Romania’s most isolated regions, the Oaș Country. Analysing historically the organisation of labour within the region’s communities, the article reveals that a traditional organisation of work found the structural conditions to reproduce during socialist times, as a result of an incomplete proletarianisation process. A particular subsistence system, defined by collective organisation of work and by geographical mobility, explains both the success in transnational migration after 1990 and the intensifying of the social competition within the region’s communities. The article also makes clear that transnational migration represents the path for a complete proletarianisation of these groups.
