This article examines the social network maintained by former kibbutzniks living in Los Angeles, in relation to their cultural and ethnic roots, against a background of transnationalism, using a qualitative approach and life-history methodology. The findings indicate that this population constitutes a unique subgroup with a common internal language and clear boundaries separating them from the rest of society. The study shows that kibbutz-reared Israeli immigrants set up a social network characterized by intensive multiplex ties that provides practical and emotional support but at the same time decreases their desire to integrate into the new country
