Abstract

This paper introduces the Immigrant German Election Study (IMGES) as the first survey that explicitly targeted immigrant-origin voters in Germany. IMGES fills the gap of insufficient data in the field of immigrant-origin voters with a combination of proven and novel survey measures of the electoral behavior of people with a background from either Türkiye or from the former Soviet Union or its successor states. The study was carried out in a post-election, cross-sectional survey in 2017. Its compatibility with the German Longitudinal Election Study (GLES), the Ethnic Minority British Election Study (EMBES), and the Dutch Ethnic Minority Election Study (DEMES) allows for in-depth comparative analyses between immigrant-origin voters and natives across different countries. In addition to standard measures of electoral behavior, the data include measures of immigrant-specific factors relevant to voting behavior. Moreover, the dataset is not limited to voting behavior in Germany, it also includes transnational voting behavior in the respective countries of origin.

在后移民社会中调查移民裔选民：2017 年首次德国移民选举研究

本文介绍了德国移民选举研究（Immigrant German Election Study，IMGES），这是首个明确针对德国移民裔选民的调查。IMGES 通过对具有土尔其或前苏联或其继承国背景的人的选举行为进行行之有效和新颖的调查测量，填补了移民裔选民领域数据不足的空白。该研究是在 2017 年大选后的横截面调查中进行的。它与德国纵向选举研究（GLES）、英国少数民族选举研究（EMBES）和荷兰少数民族选举研究（DEMES）兼容，可以对不同国家的移民裔选民和本地选民进行深入的比较分析。除了选举行为的标准衡量标准外，这些数据还包括与投票行为相关的移民特定因素的衡量标准。此外，数据集不仅限于在德国的投票行为，还包括在各自原籍国的跨国投票行为。

期刊介绍： Electoral Studies is an international journal covering all aspects of voting, the central act in the democratic process. Political scientists, economists, sociologists, game theorists, geographers, contemporary historians and lawyers have common, and overlapping, interests in what causes voters to act as they do, and the consequences. Electoral Studies provides a forum for these diverse approaches. It publishes fully refereed papers, both theoretical and empirical, on such topics as relationships between votes and seats, and between election outcomes and politicians reactions; historical, sociological, or geographical correlates of voting behaviour; rational choice analysis of political acts, and critiques of such analyses.
