REPCO

In the first part of this episode, Rana Dasgupta, Lara García Díaz and Timothy Snyder reflect on the nation-state model, which quickly led us to question issues of citizenship. Since the nation-state is bound to a territory, its citizens form an exclusive group with rights and benefits bestowed upon them following a logic of birthright. Imagining a future beyond nation-states, thus, must imply a shift in our approach to citizenship.

In this second part, our guests discuss the topic of citizenship and what it could mean for Europe.
