Notes

1 What makes this article particularly interesting is, that – different from other contributions – citizenship is conceptualised more as a set of duties, which citizens are obliged to fulfil, rather than a bundle of rights. Generally, however, the contributions focus on citizenship as an entitling status.

2 Similar implications can be found in Münch (vol. 2, page 1): ‘European citizenship in the zone of tension between a cosmopolitan outlook and historically rooted national solidarities’. We would do well, to relegate such arguments to the realm of functionalism.
