Dual Citizenship in Global Perspective: From Unitary to Multiple Citizenship

Sovereign states have increasingly tolerated dual citizenship. This is surprising considering that, until recently, citizenship and political loyalty to a state were still considered inseparable. In an age of increasing transnational insecurity, questions of loyalty to the nation state have gained renewed prominence. The contributions to this volume examine the idea that increasing tolerance towards dual citizenship is a test case for the growing liberalization of citizenship law in liberal and emerging democracies.
