【 摘 要 】

This article analyses how migrants’ transnational political practices contribute to the quality of democratic systems in their countries of origin. It focuses on the phenomenon of the «external vote», comparing experiences from three Andean countries: Colombia, Bolivia and Peru. In all three cases, mechanisms to politically include nationals residing abroad have been created, but in different historical, socioeconomic and political contexts, as well as with diverse results.
