ABSTRACT

The introduction of the concept of citizenship makes it a necessary concept to work on an integrated national unity in light of the challenges we are going through, and make citizenship an idea as a form of national cohesion in repelling the many attacks. The citizen is the first goal as it is concerned with national achievement, because its absence from the citizen is understandable and behavioral is the absence of national unity. In addition, citizenship is a major focus of modern democratic theory and practice. It is the basis for the promotion of democracy. In the absence of citizenship, democracy leads to ethnic, sectarian, and religious outcomes, which are based on the public interest and the resulting political and social division and instability. It is impossible to talk about citizenship in the 21st century, in isolation from civil society and the modern national state, the state of law and institutions, as a necessary introduction to the democratic state. Citizenship is its basic foundation: Equality and freedom are what make democracy a communication system open to a human horizon as much as it is open to growth and progress. The concept of a “global citizen” is still emerging. In the political and diplomatic language, people are still talking about “state nationals” and the “state of care” that care for the interests of their citizens and defend their rights not only in their territory but also wherever they are, through their embassies and consulates.
