Journal overview

Citizenship Studies is an academic journal that takes the discourse and practice of citizenship as an object of critical inquiry. This includes the affects, economies, ideologies, spatialities, subjectivities, and temporalities relevant to contending articulations of citizenship. We seek submissions that are responsive to forms of domination and control in relation to citizenship, as well as to modes of resistance and transformation. The journal addresses historical and contemporary questions of concern to various publics; it aims to cover a wide geographical scope and encourages approaches that attempt to move beyond methodological nationalism. We seek submissions that make original theoretical and empirical contributions and encourage interdisciplinary perspectives covering the fields of anthropology, cultural studies, geography, history, international studies, politics, political-economy and sociology.
