Abstract:	本研究將海外移民和選舉研究結合在一起，重點關注於海外移民透過海外不在籍投票參與母國的政治。本篇主要使用社會經濟學之觀點、再社會化之因素、以及前述兩者對移民投票行為之影響等三項概念進行研究。本研究以定居臺灣之菲律賓籍移民的觀點為中心，探討他們透過海外不在籍投票（OAV）對菲律賓海外投票政策的認識、參與投票和投票意識的重要性。結果顯示，教育作為一個社會經濟程度上的指標，符合研究假設中教育如何積極影響海外移民對母國的政治參與、以及對選舉的觀點。另一方面，移民在海外停留的時間長度作為再社會化之指標，研究發現顯示僅有較微弱的關聯性，若在假設更長的海外停留時間，會使移民遠離母國政治和選舉參與的情况之下，產生出既正面又截然不同的兩種結果。 Bringing migration and electoral studies together, this research focuses on emigrants` homeland political participation through external voting. It primarily uses the concepts of socioeconomic and resocialization factors and their influence on migrants’ voting behaviors. The study centers on Taiwan-based Filipino migrants’ perspectives and explores their awareness, participation, and perceived importance of the Philippines’ external voting policy through Overseas Absentee Voting (OAV). Results show that education as a socioeconomic indicator coincided more with assumptions on how it can positively influence emigrants’ homeland political and electoral participation or perspectives. On the other hand, length of stay abroad as a resocialization indicator shows a weaker link, yielding both positive and contrasting results on assumptions that a longer stay abroad distances emigrants from homeland politics and electoral participation.
