Ideje građanstva i politike državljanstva – izazovi antropološkoj imaginaciji

Abstract

Even though the terms citizenship and nationality, with their wide range of meanings, relate to the problems in constituting human communities, managing the social relationships within them as well as defining borders towards the Others – some of the defining anthropological issues – these terms are often not recognized as relevant frameworks for anthropological researches. In this paper it is my intention to point out possible uses of the-se terms as frameworks for some anthropological researches as well as the important contributions anthropology can offer for the better understanding of their political operationalization.
