As people become more mobile around the world, the nature of
citizenship, and all its attendant rights, has become the object of
intense scrutiny. And, as we know, democracies forcefully and
coercively exclude those whom they believe do not belong on their
territory or among their constituency. In Democracy and Exclusion,
Patti Tamara Lenard looks at how and when democracies exclude both
citizens and noncitizens from territory and from membership to
determine if and when there are instances when such exclusion is
justified. To make her case, Lenard draws on the all-subjected
principle, or the idea that all those who are the subject of
law—that is, those who are required to abide by the law and who
are subject to coercion if they do not do so voluntarily—should
have a say in what the law is. If we assess who is subjected to the
power of a state at any particular moment, and especially over
time, we can see who ought to be treated as a member and therefore
be granted citizenship or the right to stay. With an in-depth look
at instances in which democratic states have expanded or adopted
policies that permit the exclusion of citizens—including
denationalization, stateless peoples, labor migrants, returning
foreign fighters, and LGBTQ+ refugee resettlement—Lenard argues
that admission to territory and membership is either favored by, or
required by, democratic justice. Democracy and Exclusion makes a
powerful case that subjection to the power of a state, without
proper protection from exclusion, is a violation of democratic
principle.
