Citizenship is evolving toward multiple simultaneous levels beyond the nation-state

Evidence

It appears clearly that modern citizenship as it developed within the nation-state has become in part obsolete. But it also seems that we are still searching for a new multidimensional concept of citizenship which would be more adapted to the complexity of the global world. In the future, citizenship understood as a juridical status granting civil, political, and social rights and duties to the individual members of a political collectivity, as a set of specific social roles (voter, activist, etc.) performed by the citizen and as a set of moral qualities often referred to as the expression of civism, can be expected to be located not only at the nation-state level, but also locally at the regional level (for example, EU citizenship) and at the global level. — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 845

Categorization

• DEFINE: Useful tripartite definition of citizenship as juridical status, performed roles, and moral qualities — a grounding reference for later claims about who counts as a citizen.
• corroborated: 2 independent passages support this claim — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 845
• XREF: connects to: Citizenship is decoupling from nation-state boundaries under globalization — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 835; EU citizenship was the first juridical attempt at citizenship beyond the nation-state — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 837; EU citizenship derives from and remains subordinate to national citizenship — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 839
