本文比较了欧盟28个成员国在国家立法选举中限制外部投票的潜在选举影响的制度约束。研究表明，政策目标与结果之间的差异主要归因于限制政策范围的各种制度约束（通过居住和职业资格）；限制合格选民获得选票（通过繁琐的登记程序和投票方法）；并减少他们的选票在选举中的权重（通过不同的代表模式）。它认为，这种差异至少部分是由于对外部选民可能而且应该在选举中产生影响的选举和规范方面的担忧。对外国公民选举权的制度性限制可以被解释为一种保持意外选举后果的“潘多拉盒子”半封闭的方式，将选举权扩大到传统上被排除在外的选民，同时缓和其影响。
The article compares the institutional constraints that limit the potential electoral impact of external voting in national legislative elections in the 28 Member States of the European Union (EU). It shows that the discrepancy between policy aims and outcomes can be mainly attributed to a variety of institutional constraints restricting the scope of the policy (through residence and professional qualifications); limiting eligible voters’ access to the ballot (through cumbersome registration procedures and voting methods); and reducing the electoral weight attributed to their votes (through distinct modes of representation). It argues that the discrepancy is at least partly the result of a combination of electoral and normative concerns about the influence that external voters could and should have in elections. Institutional restrictions on the franchise of external citizens may be interpreted as a way to keep the “Pandora's box” of unexpected electoral consequences half-shut, by extending the suffrage to a traditionally excluded electorate while at the same time moderating the implications.
