Research on the development of citizenship has been reinvigorated by considering adolescents as participants actively engaged in, and interacting with, family, peers, teachers, and the media.

We isolate the impact of birthright citizenship by comparing children born shortly before and shortly after the cutoff in years of policy ch...

We show that citizenship laws have responded endogenously to economic and institutional determinants. When...

This paper investigates whether, in theoretical terms, corporations can be citizens. The argument is based on the observation that the debate on ‘corporate citizenship’ (CC) has only paid limited attention to the actual notion of citizenship.
