and Constructing Global
Citizenship.
Project Report.

Abstract
Led by the principal investigator for
the present project, Dr. Barry Cannon,
from Maynooth University’s Sociology
Department, the project provided
participants with theoretical inputs around
democracy, citizenship, and globalisation,
supporting and challenging the group to
examine, deepen and extend their work
on global citizenship. The project report
concluded that:
• Globalisation has created new
complexities around the sovereignty of
states, who are the traditional guarantors
of citizenship. It has opened up new
avenues for citizenship claims while
bringing challenges in the nature and
realisation of these claims.
• The concept of global citizenship is
one response to the challenge of
conceptualising democracy beyond the
nation state frame. Yet it was noted that
there was no specific model for global
citizenship and in fact contemporary
citizenship responds to multiple
sovereignties, below, within, across and
beyond states.
• The report recommended that further
work be done with the sector to explore
these issues on global citizenship.
