Abstract
ABSTRACT In this short essay, Brandzel cautions scholars as to how their scholarship might inadvertently reproduce the violent operations of citizenship. Focusing on over thirty articles from this journal that deploy Engin Isin’s framework of ‘acts of citizenship’ as an example, Brandzel points towards a troubling trend of calling practices, identities, or behaviors as an ‘act of citizenship’ without qualifying why citizenship is the appropriate framework. In the end, Brandzel appeals to citizenship studies scholars to be more selective of their uses of citizenship, and to consider focusing their work on ways to disrupt or ‘act against citizenship’.
期刊介绍：
Citizenship Studies publishes internationally recognised scholarly work on contemporary issues in citizenship, human rights and democratic processes from an interdisciplinary perspective covering the fields of politics, sociology, history and cultural studies. It seeks to lead an international debate on the academic analysis of citizenship, and also aims to cross the division between internal and academic and external public debate. The journal focuses on debates that move beyond conventional notions of citizenship, and treats citizenship as a strategic concept that is central in the analysis of identity, participation, empowerment, human rights and the public interest.
