Citizenship has mostly been about being here, either through birth or residence. The territorial premises for citizenship have worked to resolve the peculiar challenges of American identity. But globalization is detaching identity from location. What used to define American was rooted in American space. Now one can be anywhere and be an American, politically or culturally. Against that backdrop, it becomes difficult to draw the boundaries of human community in a meaningful way. Longstanding notions of democratic citizenship are becoming obsolete, even as we cling to them. Beyond Citizenship charts the trajectory of American citizenship and shows how American identity is unsustainable in the face of globalization."- from Amazon.comCitizenshipUnited StatesNaturalizationUnited StatesDual nationalityUnited StatesEquality before the lawUnited StatesNoncitizensUnited StatesElectronic books.CitizenshipNaturalizationDual nationalityEquality before the lawNoncitizens342.7308/3Spiro Peter J991669MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451904003321Beyond citizenship2269584UNINA
