Study Notes

GOV127100: Politics in Everyday Life - Chapter 4: Citizenship

This chapter focuses on the concept of citizenship, including political culture, citizen and democracy, and global citizenship.
The objectives include understanding the definition and characteristics of citizen, the relationship between citizenship and democracy, and global citizenship.
The introduction highlights the increasing global interest in issues related to citizenship, such as welfare, education, public health, and labor, prior to discussing state policy.
Several key issues are identified:
- Who should be considered members of society?
- What rights and duties do members of society have?
- How is identity as a member of society defined?
This chapter explores how the notion of citizenship has evolved, referencing Greek history and characteristics that are still seen today, including political culture and its impact on democracy.
The study also introduces a distinction between citizen's rights and duties. Citizens are not simply members of the state; their roles must be defined in their relationships with society and the state, impacting a nation's stability and development.
Citizenship requires a keen desire to become a perfect citizen. This involves both rights and duties.
The text points out that citizen participation is sometimes insufficient, and sometimes too much, and that perfect citizenship requires cultivation and education.
The chapter also covers three types of political culture:
- Parochial: Citizens do not feel their actions affect the state.
- Subject: Citizens are impacted by the state, but feel no ability to affect the state.
- Participant: Citizens feel they can affect the state.
These types of political culture can affect government stability.
The concept of civic culture is introduced—a mixture of the three, offering a balance within society.
The concept of global citizenship is also discussed, noting that traditional notions of citizenship are undergoing significant change within an increasingly globalized world.
Labor movement and industrialization are linked to shifts in human interaction and the scope of citizenship.
Global citizenship is becoming increasingly relevant with information technology.
Characteristics of global citizenship are detailed:
- Social responsibility, awareness of justice and world disparities
- Global competence, aware of limitations, communicate across cultures
- Global civic engagement, participating in and supporting global movements

Keywords

Citizenship: Important for forming strong, thriving political communities. Citizens need to be aware of their roles, duties, and rights.
Political Culture: The set of values and beliefs that people have about politics and the political system, which influences their behavior in these areas.
Civic Culture: Balance between participation and stability. Sufficient, yet not excessive, political participation is preferable to maintain stability in society.
Global Citizen: Citizenship that’s not tied to a single nation, but characterized by a knowledge and adherence of global issues and rights.
