Abstract

ABSTRACT In this short essay, Brandzel cautions scholars as to how their scholarship might inadvertently reproduce the violent operations of citizenship. Focusing on over thirty articles from this journal that deploy Engin Isin’s framework of ‘acts of citizenship’ as an example, Brandzel points towards a troubling trend of calling practices, identities, or behaviors as an ‘act of citizenship’ without qualifying why citizenship is the appropriate framework. In the end, Brandzel appeals to citizenship studies scholars to be more selective of their uses of citizenship, and to consider focusing their work on ways to disrupt or ‘act against citizenship’.

反对公民身份：对公民身份研究的呼吁

在这篇短文中，Brandzel提醒学者们，他们的学术研究可能会无意中再现公民的暴力行为。Brandzel以本刊上30多篇采用Engin Isin的“公民行为”框架的文章为例，指出了一种令人不安的趋势，即把实践、身份或行为称为“公民行为”，而不说明为什么公民身份是合适的框架。最后，Brandzel呼吁公民研究学者在使用公民身份时更有选择性，并考虑将他们的工作重点放在破坏或“反对公民身份”的方法上。

期刊介绍： Citizenship Studies publishes internationally recognised scholarly work on contemporary issues in citizenship, human rights and democratic processes from an interdisciplinary perspective covering the fields of politics, sociology, history and cultural studies. It seeks to lead an international debate on the academic analysis of citizenship, and also aims to cross the division between internal and academic and external public debate. The journal focuses on debates that move beyond conventional notions of citizenship, and treats citizenship as a strategic concept that is central in the analysis of identity, participation, empowerment, human rights and the public interest.
