Extract

The confluences of global flows, by forming new spaces andentanglements of possibilities, have a mutating effect oncitizenship. In an ever-shifting landscape configured by mobilitiesand positionalities, the idea of citizenship tied to the terrain andimagination of a nation-state (Anderson [1983]1991) is called into question. In theory, citizenship asprotected entitlements depends on membership in a nation-state. Butincreasingly in practice, entitlements and benefits are realizedthrough specific mobilizations and claims in milieus of globalizedcontingency. The movements of global markets, technologies, andpopulations interact to shape novel spaces of political mobilizationand claims. As rights and protections long associated withcitizenship are becoming disarticulated from the state, they arere-articulated with elements such as market-based interests,transnational agencies, mobile elites, and marginializedpopulations.
