But what is citizenship?

‘Citizenship is a status bestowed on those

who are full members of a community. All who

possess the status are equal with respect to

the rights and duties with which the status is

endowed' (Marshall ,1950, p.28-9)

‘Civic culture underscores

culture, i.e. collective meaning

making’ (Dahgren, 2001)

Four dimensions of Civic Culture

competencies

2 - Loyalty to democratic values

and procedures

.Does digital media reinforce the commitment

to democratic values?

3- Practices, routines, traditions

4 -Identities as citizens- A form of social status?

Any examples you can think of?

‘As a category, citizenship designates a set of actors - citizens - distinguished by their shared privileged position vis-a-vis some particular state. As a tie, citizenshipidentifies an enforceable mutual relationbetween an actor and state agents. As a role, citizenship includes all of an actor's relations to others that depend on the actor's relation to a particular state. And as an identity, citizenship can refer to the experience and public representation of category, tie or role.’ (Tilly, 1995)
