BOOKS: Citizens or subjects that is the question
[Tribune] “Like the civil society”, he notes, “citizenship has come to mean everything and nothing: the nationality indicated by a passport, entitlement to benefits, commitment to a particular political or social order, even decent behaviour towards ones colleagues on university campuses”. This observation is a bit confusing, coming from someone who so carefully follows the history of citizenship from its “restrictive, less relevant” beginnings through its complex, “more relevant” development and who, in the end, fails to place the meaning of “diffuse” within his parameters of “relevance”.

This is because, under GB’s vision, the process of becoming a British citizen is transformed into a rite of passage, where you have to pass a number of tests that prove the sincerity of your wish to be a British citizen which, through the rights and responsibilities citizenship embodies and enacts, actually means something:
