  • Modern-day proxeny : dual citizens and resident foreigners as citizen diplomats
    Kopper, Akos
    The paper draws an analogy between the ancient Greek practice of proxeny and the representative role citizens with multiple affiliations may perform in modern-day democratic politics. In recent ... decades, we can witness a trend of decoupling the demos from residency and citizenship. This trend has two components. First, there is an increasingly lenient stance towards dual citizenship, which frequently goes together with offering political rights for non-resident citizens. Second, non-citizen residents are also increasingly granted political rights in local politics. The aim of this paper is to weigh the implications of this change for representative democracies, primarily by pointing out the potential role such citizens with multiple affiliations may play as diplomatic agents and mitigate the problem of external voice deficiencies.
