The journal and online magazine\u00a0Open Citizenship<\/a><\/em> is a resource for and by people concerned with citizenship, migration and political participation in the European Union. Each edition of the journal focuses on a different aspect of citizenship within Europe, and combines academic writing with editorials, interviews and profiles of social movements.<\/p>\n

A new way of publishing<\/b><\/p>\n

We used to publish the journal twice a year and distribute it to libraries, conferences, NGOs and professional networks. While that’s still our ultimate aim, we’re going to publish all the articles here, on our website first. After six months or so, we’ll collect the articles and publish them in a soft-cover journal.<\/p>\n

We’re currently working on an issue concerned with “Youth In Europe”.\u00a0You can read more about that on our Call For Papers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ordering<\/strong><\/p>\n

Volume 5 Issue 1: 2014 – Who Cares About Sustainability?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Cover\"<\/a><\/h2>\n

After all, isn\u2019t sustainability just a buzzword? Doesn\u2019t it just mean \u2018green energy\u2019? Why should anyone care about it?
\nThe new edition of Open Citizenship asks these questions to find out if we as citizens are missing an important concept in our lives. There are many different definitions of \u2018sustainability\u2019- but not a single one illustrates the importance of sustainability to citizenship. Indeed, if we as citizens are not able to become involved in the debate, we risk losing the notion of citizenship itself.<\/p>\n

Volume 4 Issue 2: 2013 – Urban Citizenship – Reclaiming the European City<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"140211_CFE_OC_N2_Cover_Web\"<\/a>Debate on Europe often focuses on EU-level legislation and institutions, overlooking the places where Europe is actually experienced by people: at the local level, particularly in urban spaces. While crises often direct our attention to large-scale policies and institutional architecture, they can obscure the processes of re-invention constantly taking place when citizens interact with each other. In our view, no matter what takes place inside the bubble of Brussels, Europe will always be defined by how people live together and organise their local communities.<\/p>\n

Volume 4 Issue 1: 2013 – The European Economic Crisis, Civil Society and Resistance<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"OC<\/a>In the forthcoming issue of Open Citizenship, titled \u201cThe European economic crisis, civil society & resistance\u201d, a major theme among our contributions is the notion of crisis as opportunity. That is, civil society should view the on-going economic crisis in Europe as a window of opportunity. To do what? For our authors, it\u2019s an opportunity to advocate financial regulation with teeth, to strengthen a European identity, to experiment with alternative forms of governance or to formulate a coherent, communicable vision for the European project.<\/p>\n

Volume 3 Issue 1: 2012\u00a0 \u2013 Identity in Europe<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The pieces in this issue also suggest that identity in Europe causes diverse outcomes. For instance, the role of identity in political outcomes is different in the Netherlands, Latvia and Germany. Ultimately, European identity may simply be a fluid hodgepodge of subsumed identities that play out differently depending on where you are and which issue area you\u2019re talking about \u2013 be it politics, culture or even sport.<\/p>\n

Volume 2 Issue 2:\u00a0 2011 \u2013 EU Mobility<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"FinalCover3_Screen<\/a>This issue of Open Citizenship<\/em> takes a closer look at mobility in the European Union. Since the European Economic Community was created to allow free movement of workers, the concept of mobility has changed. Today, the EU allows for free movement of citizens from all Member States within its borders and utilises mobility programmes to enhance EU identity. At the same time, citizens\u2019 increased mobility leads to new challenges concerning voting rights, social rights or international marriage and divorce laws.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Volume 2 Issue 1: 2011 \u2013 Exclusion and Discrimination<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

In the second issue\"\"<\/a> of Open Citizenship<\/em>, we take a closer look at exclusion and discrimination in Europe. This includes legal discrimination caused by limiting citizenship concepts at the EU and Member State level, as well as cultural obstacles to integration. In addition, the issue will explore possible solutions, by outlining, for example, cases in which progressive forms of citizenship have partly overcome these practices.<\/p>\n

Exclusion and discrimination are relevant to different fields such as political participation, social services, cultural inclusion, education and others. Discrimination can take place when EU citizens cross Member State borders or affect third-country nationals lawfully residing in the EU. Discrimination may also take place at the personal level, in cultural definitions of what is \u2018European\u2019. The subject of discrimination is broad and open to diverse interpretations.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Volume 1, Issue 1: 2010 \u2013 Citizens for Europe<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"1.1<\/a>\u00a0 The ongoing integration process of the European Union and the increasing cross-border mobility of its peoples challenge the traditional legal definition and political construction of citizenship as national identity. As increasingly more people in the Union choose a transnational lifestyle, and with an increasing rate of residency outside the country of citizenship (at present: 11 million EU citizens), the social contract as represented by national citizenship looses the ability to fully delineate individuals\u2019 roles, rights and responsibilities.<\/p>\n

Such residency patterns and the current model of citizenship has a significant impact on individual\u2019s participation in political society. As a result many European expatriates are disenfranchised at the regional (county, state or provincial) and national levels. Moreover, non-European expatriates can find themselves excluded from all political participation. Unfortunately, the Treaty of Lisbon enhanced this discrimination. Consequently, the central theme of the first edition of Open Citizenship<\/em> is \u201cEuropean citizenship\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
