This paper examines 'next' generation institutional transnationalism, a concept that refers to individuals born and/or brought up in a country of settlement who are involved in transnational organisations oriented towards their country of origin - in this case Mexican and Salvadoran groups active within the United States. Building on previous research which views parental transmission as a major cause of next-generation transnationalism, this paper explores an additional and previously overlooked influence - parental involvement in cross-border organisations or causes.
