Rather than impugn the abject citizen-subject who embraces her degraded condition, Eva Cherniavsky asks what new or hybrid forms of civic agency emerge as popular sovereignty recedes. Drawing on a range of political theories, Neocitizenship also suggests that theory is at a disadvantage in thinking the historical present, since its analytical categories are wrought in the very historical contexts whose dissolution we now seek to comprehend. Cherniavsky thus supplements theory with a focus on popular culture that explores the de-democratization for citizenship in more generative and undecided ways. Tracing the contours of neocitizenship in fiction through examples such as The White Boy Shuffle and Distraction, television shows like Battlestar Galactica, and in the design of American studies abroad, Neocitizenship aims to take the measure of a transformation in process, while evading the twin lures of optimism and regret. 606 $aPolitical culture$zUnited States 606 $aPopular culture$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States 606 $aCitizenship$zUnited States 615 0$aPolitical culture 615 0$aPopular culture$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aCitizenship 676 $a306.20973 700 $aCherniavsky$b Eva$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01481358 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792694703321 996 $aNeocitizenship$93698272 997 $aUNINA
