Citizenship 2.0 focuses on an important yet overlooked dimension of globalization: the steady rise in the legitimacy and prevalence of dual citizenship. Demand for dual citizenship is particularly high in Latin America and Eastern Europe, where more than three million people have obtained a second citizenship from EU countries or the United States.
"Harpazs achievement is to have furnished an account of citizenships commodification."---Tadgh Healy, Dublin Review of Books
"[Citizenship 2.0] is a wonderful read that supplies many provocative arguments and insightful observations. The intrepid fieldworkin three countries and even more languagescomplements a revealing quantitative analysis that breaks down numerous unfounded assumptions about dual citizenship. It provides an important platform for research and debate going forward." * American Journal of Sociology *
