About the Author :
David C. Earnest is Assistant Professor of Political Science and International Studies at Old Dominion University and coauthor of On the Cutting Edge of Globalization: An Inquiry into American Elites.

Review :
"In this thoughtful, well-written, tightly argued and methodologically rigorous book, David C. Earnest asks why a surprising number of liberal democracies grant voting rights to non-citizens or resident aliens. His query could not be more timely." - Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies "This is a very ambitious study that builds on earlier scholarship on a relatively little-researched topic of great significance. The author crafts a model and empirically tests hypotheses. This is a major breakthrough in an area of mainly descriptive writing." - Mark J. Miller, coauthor of The Age of Migration: International Population Movements in the Modern World, Third Edition "The author's point that rights for aliens will be influenced in a significant way by the respective citizenship tradition is a welcome reminder for migration research. In addition, the book furthers our knowledge about the application of time-series cross-section design, and it introduces new ways of dealing with major errors in these types of studies. It is thus of interest to both migration researchers and researchers designing similar studies." - Sabine Dreher, Near East University
