'It is clear that in the twentieth century citizenship and the capitalist class system have been at war.' (Marshall 1950, 29). Since then social movements, immigration flows and increasing global interconnectedness have fundamentally challenged political and theoretical assumptions of citizenship. Citizenship refers to a relation between the state and its members which entitles people to benefit from basic rights. To be a citizen means to be equal as a member in an inclusive political community. Yet, disadvantaged and minoritized groups (independent of their legal status as citizens) have raised claims for economic, political and social equality that would take into account different experiences and practices of people. Feminists, for example, pressed for the re-gendering of citizenship from a universal male concept towards the recognition of difference. Furthermore 'denizens began to demand rights of belonging and participation without claiming passports of the country of residence and 'transnational migrants' claimed new approaches towards border-crossing and lived practices in more than one nation-state.
Can citizenship grasp the complexity and diversity of today’s relations with networks, friends and families? Is it able to include new dimensions of translocality or does it necessarily contribute to new walls between territories? Can citizenship be considered as feminist, queer and global or is it necessarily excluding groups of people while including others?
