Transforming Citizenship? The EU, Electoral Rights and the Restructuring of European Political Space

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Under EU law, all citizens of the Member States have a right to vote and stand in local and European Parliment elections, wherever they are resident in the EU. This is one of the limited number of rights granted as part of citizenship of the Union. This study examines the implementation of these rights, and looks at how they interact with other debates about immigration and the status of non-nationals, including those from non-EU Member States. EU electoral rights are part of a process of transformation of citizenship more generally within the EU's legal and political framework.
