Emigrants Get Political: Mexican Migrants Engage Their Home Towns

Migrants have become an important social and political constituency throughout the world. In addition to sending remittances to their home countries, many migrants maintain political ties with their nations of origin through the expansion of dual citizenship and voting rights. But to what extent do migrants influence their home communities and governments? Michael S. Danielson develops a theory of and methodological model for studying migrant impact on thecommunities and countries they leave behind, examining a largely underexplored area of research in the migration literature (ed.).
