Securitizations of Citizenship investigates how the fate of
citizenship is now caught up in a dramatic and dangerous process of
securitizing political communities. In the nervous state of affairs
of the post-9/11 period, technologies of surveillance and control
are rapidly proliferating, creating severe constraints for the
enactment of citizenship practices. While citizenship has always
faced the problem of exclusiveness, the contemporary relationship
between security, territory, and population is being transformed in
ways that are creating new dynamics of exclusion for citizens,
non-citizens, and quasi-citizens alike.
This book assesses a variety of citizenship practices in
relation to the emergence of forms of governance that are
responsive to and constitutive of fears, anxieties, and
insecurities in the population. At the same time, the book
identifies and assesses citizenship practices for how they can
mobilize progressive forces to militate against the nervous,
anxious and fearful subjectivities instigated by newly securitized
sovereignties. In the critical spaces between inclusion and
exclusion, migration and mobility, security and surveillance,
reason and neurosis, biopower and sovereign power, the contributors
to this book reflect upon the possibilities and constraints for
refiguring citizenship today.
