地理学家长期以来对公民身份感兴趣，认为公民身份是政治和领土成员之间的纽带。然而，即使与公民身份相关的关键政治进程（例如投票或游说政府机构）是在领土之外进行的，与领土的关系也比外部投票所暗示的简单的“内部/外部”划分更为复杂。本文对投票实践的地域背景进行了具体的地理分析。尽管人们对外部投票的引入以及引入的制度的性质提出了许多一般性解释，但似乎与政府和移民群体之间关系的历史和性质有关的背景、特定国家的因素通常是决定性的。
Geographers have a long-standing interest in citizenship as the link between political and territorial membership. Yet, even when key political processes associated with citizenship, such as voting or lobbying government institutions are carried out from beyond the territory there is a more complex relationship with territory than the simple ‘inside/outside’ division that external voting suggests. This article develops a specifically geographical analysis of the territorial context of voting practices. Although a number of general explanations have been offered for the introduction of external voting, and for the nature of the systems introduced it seems that contextual, country-specific factors concerning the history and nature of the relationship between the government and emigrant groups are usually determinant.
