Resumen:
Migrants are groups affected by ICTs technological transformation from an uprooting paradigm into a connected one, known as the paradigm of the connected migrant. The Internet is one of the most used technologies by these groups to organize virtual communities and create transnational networks. This paper focuses on the study of websites of migrants? associations from Andean countries in Argentina. To begin, we will analyze the potential and extent of the aforementioned websites. And then, we will reflect on techno-sociability and the construction of community ties in the era of connected migrants.Keywords: ANDEAN MIGRANTS, SOCIAL NETWORKS, ASSOCIATIONS, ICTs, ARGENTINA.
