James A. McCann studies political participation among immigrants, particularly Latino and Mexican immigrants in the United States, as well as overseas voters and transnational political engagement. His work examines how experiences like elections, naturalization status, and civic distress shape immigrants' involvement in politics both in their host country and their country of origin. This research combines survey data, experiments, and case studies to understand civic and electoral incorporation.
Publication output was steady at a low rate through the late 2010s, peaked sharply in 2021, and has since slowed to a more modest pace with a gap in 2022 and 2025.
