- Abstract
- The concept of citizenchip and its role in how we organize our societies is subject to a great discussion within social and political science.
In this essay I aim to problematize and lighten the complexity of citizenship. I also aim to lighten new ways of understanding and use citizenchip.

A situation in which socially exposed people are neglected social support.
In my essay I use discourse theory to analyse three diffrent offical documents. Documents which in diffrent ways are handling the right to social support and the situation for socially exposed EU- citizens in Sweden.

My conclusion is that citizenchip is very complex and not to understand as merely a membership in a nationstate. There is a need to understand this complexity to see how it affect peoples lives, to be able to have a critical approach to the concept and to be able to imagine something else. (Less)
