Denizens All: The Otherness of Citizenship

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Migration, Diasporas and Citizenship Series ((MDC))

Abstract

Who, or what, are the others of citizenship? This is the question that has animated this volume, the thematic that has invigorated this book. Remarkably, as the contributors to this collection have demonstrated in exacting detail, citizenship seems to unrelentingly generate a veritable menagerie of curious creatures disqualified from its graces. This vexed and variegated spectrum of citizenship’s others commands our attention and incites our critical scrutiny, not least because, sooner or later, we discover ourselves among them.
