Facilitating Voting Rights for Transnational Citizens
Voting rights for transnational citizens need to expand beyond local and EU elections to foster social integration and civic engagement. Countries should consider adopting more inclusive voting policies similar to those in Greece, allowing citizens residing abroad to participate at all levels of elections. This approach could enhance citizens' sense of belonging and investment in their communities, which is particularly vital in highly mobile populations. The example of Luxembourg highlights the challenges of restricted voting rights, where only a small percentage of residents can participate, illustrating the potential disconnect within diverse societies like Berlin. Acknowledging and empowering the voting rights of international residents is essential to mitigate societal deficits and enhance democratic participation.
