Alien Equality

  • Peter Nyers

The Citizen and the Alien and The Birthright Lottery are impressive books. Both works provoke innovative ways for thinking about equality and justice within the concept of citizenship. This essay presses on the authors’ claims and assumptions about equality as they relate to citizenship. In particular, I raise questions about the treatment of borders, indigenous peoples, and what we could consider acts of global citizenship.
