Hay tambien un incremento en la tendencia de la migracion de retorno, acompanada de la transferencia de capital financiero, de informacion y mano de obra. Se han establecido vinculos transnacionales tanto a nivel del hogar como de la comunidad, los que se han convertido en un rasgo caracteristico de la migracion en el Caribe.
