Project "Effects of enfranchising non-citizens in Switzerland"

Today’s world is characterized by globalization and international mobility, yet most rights concerning democratic participation are still tied to traditional forms of citizenship. As a consequence, non-citizen are by far the largest group without franchise. We are the first to examine how citizens evaluate and react to the enfranchisement of non-citizens in Switzerland.
