Citizenship, Territoriality, and Post-Soviet Nationhood (eBook, PDF)

The Politics of Birthright Citizenship in Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Moldova

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book seeks to understand the politics of nationalism in the buffer zone between Russia and the West: Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Moldova, as well as Russia itself. It problematizes the official ways of defining the nation, and thus citizenship, in the light of "frozen" ethno-territorial conflicts and broader geopolitical discrepancies between Russia and the West. The author analyzes the politics of birthright citizenship policy in these countries and rejects the assumed connection between territorial nation-building and liberal democracy. The project will interest academics and graduate students in the fields of comparative and post-Soviet politics, nationalism, and citizenship, and international relations policy professionals.

Maxim Tabachnik is Lecturer at University of California, Santa Cruz, USA.

Rezensionen

"In terms of its theoretical framework, the book proposes a new way of understanding the concept of nationalism in the PSS. This is an important attempt to direct the debate into a lesser-known area. ... Overall, the book provides comprehensive information on the formation of citizenship policies in three post-Soviet states and makes important theoretical contributions through its own interpretation of the history of nationalism." (Azra Erdem Adak, Insight Turkey, Vol. 23 (4), 2021)
