ANDRADE QUEVEDO, Karla Elizabeth. Foreign persons right to vote: from the exclusionist tradition to the denationalization of rights. A view from comparative law. Iuris Dictio [online]. 2017, n.20, pp.139-153. ISSN 2528-7834.  https://doi.org/10.18272/iu.v20i20.892.

Recognition of political rights for foreigners has received certain openness in Europe and Latin America; however, the Marshallian view of citizenship has not been overcome and nationality remains as the determining factor for full recognition of the right to vote. This globalized world requires State’s evolution, leaving fears and paranoia behind to permit universal suffrage, real representative democracy, and full democratic legitimation. This article analyzes foreigners’ right to vote from the classic exclusionist tradition to the full integration of foreigners through the denationalization of political rights; from there it contrasts the different postures and scopes that numerous countries form Europe and Latin America have given to this right.

Palabras clave : Right to vote; Foreigners; Comparative Law.
