Governance and Emergent Transversal Citizenship: Toward a New Nexus of Moral Contracts
From: From Subjects to Citizens
$3.10
Australian and Canadian citizenships are emergent idiosyncratic realities. These complex institutions are the result of the on-going interaction between values and environment. The sort of social armistices and moral contracts embodying the workable notion of citizenship at any moment, and the sort of adaptive learning process defining the dynamics of the terms of integration over time, are different from one society to another.
