Citizenship 2.0 : dual nationality as a global asset / Yossi Harpaz
Series: (Princeton studies in global and comparative sociology)Publication details: New Jersey : Princeton University Press , 2019 Description: 203 p. : gráf., mapas ; 24 cmISBN: 9780691194066 (pbk); 9780691194059 (hbk)Subject(s): Doble nacionalidad | Globalización | CiudadaníaAbstract: "Citizenship 2.0" focuses on an important yet overlooked dimension of globalization: the steady rise in the legitimacy and prevalence of dual citizenship. Demand for dual citizenship is particularly high in Latin America and Eastern Europe, where more than three million people have obtained a second citizenship from EU countries or the United States. Most citizenship seekers acquire EU citizenship by drawing on their ancestry or ethnic origin; others secure U.S. citizenship for their children by strategically planning their place of birth. Their aim is to gain a second, compensatory citizenship that would provide superior travel freedom, broader opportunities, an insurance policy, and even a status symbol.| Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
