Description
Citizenship is a specific link between an individual (citizen), who possesses a specific legal status, and a (sovereign) state, which gives such a specific legal status to this individual. Still being the basis for certain civil and political rights, citizenship continues to be the basis for democratic inclusion and participation of individuals in public affairs. Consequently, acquiring citizenship of states (of immigration) remains an important element for the (full) integration of immigrants in ‘host’ societies. For this reason the article presents the concept of citizenship, its historic evolution and its possible implications for the full integration of immigrants. Currently the EU citizenship cannot be equaled with citizenship of a (sovereign) state. Rather than a replacement for citizenship of a state, it should be observed as a complementary concept, dependent on the citizenship of member-states. However, already at this stage the EU citizenship establishes the right of every EU citizen “to move and reside freely within the territory of the Member States, subject to the limitations and conditions laid down in this Treaty and by the measures adopted to give it effect” (Art. 18 – Consolidated Version of the Treaty Establishing the European Community), “to vote and to stand as a candidate at municipal elections in the Member State in which he resides, under the same conditions as nationals of that State” even if he/she are not citizens of this state (Art. 19), to enjoy diplomatic protection of other EU Member States in the territory of the third state if his/her state is not represented there (Art. 20), “to petition the European Parliament” and to apply to (European) Ombudsman (Art. 21). Consequently, the EU citizenship might be a useful tool for the better integration of immigrants who possess it into ‘host’ societies in other EU member states. The author argues that acquiring citizenship is just a step in the process of full integration of immigrants and in developing and promoting active democratic citizenship. Consequently, the EU citizenship can be a useful tool in this process in cases when an individual does possess it but does not possess the citizenship of the EU member state where he/she resides.

- Državljanstvo je specifična vez med posameznikom (državljanom), ki ima ta pravni status, in (suvereno) državo, ki tak status državljanom podeljuje. Ker je državljanstvo pravni temelj za nekatere civilne in politične pravice, ostaja pomembna za demokratično vključenost in sodelovanje posameznikov v javnih in zlasti političnih zadevah. Pridobitev državljanstva države, v katero imigrirajo, ostaja pomemben element polne integracije imigrantov v imigrantske družbe. Članek predstavlja koncept državljanstva, njegov zgodovinski razvoj in evolucijo ter njegove možne učinke na polno integracijo imigrantov. Državljanstvo EU nikakor ni nadomestilo za državljanstvo (suverenih) držav in ga z njim ni mogoče enačiti, zato ga moramo obravnavati kot komplementaren koncept, ki je pogojen z državljanstvom držav članic in je od njega odvisen. Vendar pa tudi tako omejeno državljanstvo EU vzpostavlja pravice državljanov EU do svobodnega gibanja in naselitve na območju držav članic (seveda z možnimi omejitvami na podlagi Pogodbe), do aktivne in pasivne volilne pravice na ravni lokalne skupnosti pod enakimi pogoji, kot jih imajo državljani te države članice, do diplomatske zaščite s strani drugih držav članic na ozemlju tretjih držav, če država, katere državljani so, v tej tretji državi nima diplomatskega predstavništva, ter do peticije Evropskemu parlamentu in vloge (evropskemu) Ombudsmanu (18.–21. člen Konsolidirane verzije Pogodbe o vzpostavitvi Evropske skupnosti). Tako je lahko državljanstvo EU koristno za boljšo integracijo imigrantov, ki so državljani EU, v imigrantsko okolje v drugi državi članici. Avtor ob tem poudarja, da je pridobitev državljanstva le korak v procesu polne integracije imigrantov v imigrantske družbe in v razvijanju koncepta aktivnega demokratičnega državljanstva. Pri tem je tudi državljanstvo EU lahko koristna stopnja v procesu integracije imigrantov, ki imigrirajo v drugo državo članico EU.
