Abstract

The present article attempts to relate three main concepts: migration, codevelopment and social capital, using analytical frameworks of political science and sociology. Those concepts enable the construction of theoretical principles for a strategy, based on empirical evidence, intended for linking the worlds within which migrants live and develop themselves and their societies.

Keywords: codevelopment, international migration, social capital, immigrant
