“…For example Hammond (), who studies the development contributions of Somaliland diaspora returnees through a number of different channels, also considers diaspora members who participated in election campaigning and eventually returned to take up their newly won political position.

“…In the case of external voting, trust must be envisaged with respect to home country institutions and how it affects migrants’ involvement in home country politics. As literature on migrants’ involvement in conflicts has examined, distrust in home country institutions may strongly stimulate migrants’ desire to get involved in home country affairs and lead to more radical political positions (Turner, 2008).
